Rock Stars Are Good At Making Noise.

If I Don't Understand It, It Must Be Art.

I Remember How My Mother Would Bring Us To Chapel On Sundays... And My Father Used To Wait Outside. One Of The Things That I Picked Up From My Father And My Mother Was The Sense That Religion Often Gets In The Way Of God. For Me, At Least, It Got In The Way.

I Get To Hear The Really Good Or The Really Bad Things In The Press, But I Don't Read It. I Can Afford To Say That Because Public Opinion Does Not Drive U2's Audience.

Sadly, I Do My Homework. I've A Soft Spot For The Boring Minutiae. I Read The Charter Of The United Nations Before Meeting With Kofi Annan. I Read The Meltzer Report, And Then I'll Read C. Fred Bergsten's Defense Of Institutions Like The World Bank And The I.m.f. It's Embarrassing To Admit.

U2 Is Sort Of Song Writing By Accident Really. We Don't Really Know What We're Doing And When We Do, It Doesn't Seem To Help.
