Layne Staley

"Kurt and I weren't the closest of friends, but I knew him well enough to be devastated by his death. For such a quiet person, he was so excited about having a child."

"Andrew Wood's death changed things for a few weeks. I probably got even heavier into drugs after that."

"When everyone goes home, you're stuck with yourself."

"I've always looked for the perfect life to step into. I've taken all the paths to get where I wanted.But no matter where I go, I still come home me."

"At home I'm just a guy who has interests that extend far beyond music."

"We started this band as kids, and as time has gone on, we've grown and are learning to accommodate each others' differences."
