Honestly, the main problem is that I have a voice in which all sounds sadder than it really is.

Sometimes people say we are too serious, but it is the only way to achieve something. We are not just going to sit and wait, and then be happy if something suddenly happens. We are ambitious. Have to be that way.

- You are regarded as one of the most important groups in the world. Whether this is for you some value? I mean, all these awards and stuff. I think it's something like a reward for what you did, but do you think yourself about this?
Um, yeah, I think about it, when you change diapers for his son. "I certainly don't have to deal with your shit right now. I'm much more important."

This is one of the reasons why we are interested in this. That's why I write music - I can't find it. I hear her but can not find anywhere else.

I'll tell you what's really funny to come into a bookstore and see all these books about yourself. The impression that you're already dead.

The bitterness of the pills rarely indicates the strength of its effect.

My life is creating Wallpaper for the void.

The main point of making music is to give voice to things which it never had.

I think I have a responsibility - a responsibility to entertain those who are looking at me.

Many people spend a lot of time to be polite. And I'm just shit at it.

The difference between me and Bono is that he is always happy to flatter someone to get what he needs at the moment. In this case, he's a master, but I have so I never could. There are people who I'd rather give in person than shook hands, and from such people I try to stay as far as possible. The level of lies and flattery, which should be supported inside yourself when you meet them, I just can't handle. Probably, it's a shame, and I feel like I need something to change in yourself, but I just can't. That's why I admire Bono. He could always go into shit and come out of it, exuding the smell of roses.
