I'm not in love with things at the moment. I was never crazy about Nirvana - too angst-ridden for me. I like Pearl Jam. I prefer them to a lot of other bands. There's a lot of angst in a lot of it, which is one of the great things to tap into. But I'm not a fan of moroseness.

No one should care if the Rolling Stones have broken up, should they? I mean, when the Beatles broke up, I couldn't give a shit. Thought it was a very good idea. Why should I live in the past just for their petty... satisfaction?

I don't listen to my own music at home.

I have always endeavored to listen to what each and every person in a discussion had to say before venturing my own opinion. Oftentimes, my own opinion will simply represent a consensus of what I heard in the discussion.

I'd rather be dead than singing 'Satisfaction' when I'm 45.

When I'm 33, I quit.
