Quotes

“My motto has always been “If you love animals, don’t eat them”. ... the moment I began to understand what was going on with the treatment of animals, it led me more and more in the way of the path I am [on] now, which is a complete vegan.”
“I bring out an engineer, everything fits into a suitcase and we just record. I have so much spare time during that day that it makes sense to utilize it to do something creative like that, as opposed to just sitting around the hotel and sightseeing or something.”
“Give it to me straight from the heart.Tell me we can make one more start.You know I'll never go - as long as I knowIt's comin' straight from the heart.”
“Now it cuts like a knife,But it feels so right.”
“I'm ready - to love you.I'm ready - to hold you.I'm ready - I'm ready.Ready as I'm gonna be.”
“I'm gonna run to you.Yeah - I'm gonna run to you.Cause when the feelin's right, I'm gonna stay all night.”
