“That song, for me, is about drugs and alcohol and loss and love. It's about being proud of who you are, being proud of your situation and just being stoked that things are always going to get better or always gonna get worse and that's such a great thing. Every day is a new surprise.”
Bert McCracken
“I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my eyes and all is born again.”

“Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet.”
Plato
“Words make you think a thought. Music makes you feel a feeling. A song makes you feel a thought.”

Ronald Reagan
“I think all the boys that write the screaming stuff would write the best love songs.... because they have the most to hide. The guys that are in the most pain are usually the ones with the biggest hearts.”
Tori Amos
“In argument similes are like songs in love; they describe much, but prove nothing.”
Franz Kafka
