I'm Cocky. It's Different. Cocky Is Playful.

I'm Fiercely Independent, But I'm Also Terrified Of Being Alone.

I Think Pain Is The Best Feeling For Song Writing. You Can Write Good Happy Songs, But I Think The Kind Of Bruiting, Depressing Ones Are More Effective. They Are Easier To Write When I Am Impassioned And Angry. It Is A Good Way To Channel That Negative Energy.

I Don’t Think Any Relationship Responds Well To Pressure.

She's The Coolest Person In The World...i Don't Date What The Person Does...you Know What I Mean? I Could Have Been A Zitty Teenager And Walked Into A Tower Records, And We Would Have Talked About Pearl Jam, And We Would Have Fallen In Love When We Were 15. And That's When You Know. It's Like, Oh, My God, Game Over.... Listen, There Are A Lot Of Women In This Country, In Many Countries, Who Date Men For Their Money. Okay? That's Despicable. Right? That's Not What We're Talking About Here. Whatever Does It For You, Man.

Not Every Song Has To Be About Love And Tenderness, Sometimes You Have Those Strictly Physical Feelings For Somebody And It's Okay To Have Those Feelings.
