I came from the last couple of years in a generation where we didn't have a computer around so we didn't waste as much time on the internet as we do now so I had large chuncks of time which to devote to doing something.
I can't even explain to you how terrible that feels, that I equate dating a woman with punishment, shame, guilt, disappointment, reproach, reprimand, persecution. It's a nightmare.

I believe in blues, and I believe that it's been misrepresented.
I am who I am because of Dave Matthews Band
I am tempted to keep the car in drive, And leave it all behind...
I am not in 'Us Weekly.' I'd have to be going out with someone who is in there to be in there myself.
I am invincible, as long as I'm alive.
I am beginning to know what it feels like to be a woman. To have people looking at you all the time. And I'm sorry ladies, I had no idea! But people are looking at me all the time. It's like I have musical boobies!
How dare you say it's nothing to me? Baby, you're the only light I ever saw.
How come everything I need always comes with batteries?
Hopefully people can see my music is tethered to my brain.
High School is like a spork: it's a crappy spoon and a crappy fork, so in the end it's just plain useless.
Have you ever loved somebody, loved her completely, but had to end the relationship for life reasons?
Half of my heart’s got a grip on the situation, half of my heart takes time.
Half of my heart's got a real good imagination, half of my heart's got you. . .Half of my hearts got a right mind to tell you that half of my heart won't do.
God only knows how much I'd love you if you let me, but I can't break through at all.
Friends, lovers, or nothing, we can really only ever be one.
Fender Custom Shop made this nickel plated Stratbelieve it or not, it sounds incredible.
Fear is a friend who's misunderstood
Fathers be good to your daughters, daughters will love like you do. Girls become lovers, who turn into mothers, so mothers be good to your daughters, too.
Everybody is just a stranger, but that's the danger in going my own way.
Every song I put on a record could be a single and I just pack my bags for it... and the minute it takes off, I'm not gonna be home for a while.
Don't be scared to walk alone. Don't be scared to like it.
Disappointment has a name, it's heartbreak
By the time I recognize this moment, this moment will be gone. . . But I will bend the light, pretend that it somehow lingered on
Atlanta's my musical home. It really was the place where I really came alive.
Anybody who's made it will tell you, you can make it. Anyone who hasn't made it will tell you, you can't

A man's got two shots for jewelry: a wedding ring and a watch. The watch is a lot easier to get on and off than a wedding ring.
By the way, pornography? It's a new synaptic pathway. You wake up in the morning, open a thumbnail page, and it leads to a Pandora's box of visuals. There have probably been days when I saw 300 vaginas before I got out of bed.
Everybody enjoys arguing about the current state of music because it feels as if you are talking about something incredibly important, yet it requires little understanding of the subject matter at hand. It's like world politics meets the pink questions in Trivial Pursuit. Points are made but nothing gets accomplished.
I can't describe it in words, but I can see it in my head, its color, its light, its shapes, and I've managed to synthesize my love for myself by way of many different reasonings and processes, and I've been able to really synthesize my own satisfaction and things that do it for me. They've usually been self-taught, self-instructed, self-refined. So to be with anybody else has to somewhat lie in that comfort zone I've created with myself so well.
I can't stress enough how important it is to write bad songs. There's a lot of people who don't want to finish songs because they don't think they're any good. Well they're not good enough. Write it! I want you to write me the worst songs you could possible write me because you won't write bad songs. You're thinking they're bad so you don't have to finish it. That's what I really think it is. Well it's all right. Well, how do you know? It's not done!
