"To get nostalgic about other people's music, or even about your own, makes a terrible statement about the condition of your life and your prospects for the future."

"It was actually drumming that gave me the stamina to get into sports later."

"I had spindly little ankles, and growing up in Canada, I couldn't skate. I was no good at any sports so was very much a pariah through those adolescent years."
