“I don't think every moment needs to have music playing in the background. You're hanging out with firends - we don't need to have music in the back. If there is music in the back, it doesn't have to be loud, could be very low. Could be background music. Sometimes I get in the car with someone they're blasting music that doesn't fit the moment at all and it's loud. I don't need music all the time, sometimes I just want to listen to the music in my head, or I just want to listen to my thoughts, or I just don't wanna listen to anything other than the sound of nature - the sound of wind, the sound of crickets. There is music in nature and you have to seek it out sometimes, there is music in everything - so when you put music to music it clashes. So take it easy on the music”

“Music is the cup that holds the wine of silence. Sound is that cup, but empty. Noise is that cup, but broken”

“The silence is above everything, I'd rather hear one note than I would two, and I would rather hear silence than I would hear one note.”
