To me, Garth, he's kind of like my guardian angel. It's like every time I need some help, he's there.

It's amazing where the paranoid mind can take you.

Now, I was on drugs, and that didn't help a whole lot. He hated that. That was part of where Chet and I had problems, so I take complete blame for that.

I have a spiritual advisor I call up, when I just feel lost. Lately, I've been talking to God. I developed this dialogue in rehab, this dialogue with God, and every day I talk to God.

I think the mind has a way of getting to where it needs to get to. If you are persistent.

It's soothing to realize that my mind's processes are inherently uncontrollable.

The mind ought sometimes to be diverted that it may return to better thinking.

In those days he was wiser than he is now - he used frequently to take my advice.

I used to psych myself up before the show and now I do the complete opposite: I psych myself down. It's 12:30 at night, you don't want some guy yelling at you. You want some guy just talking to you.

I can work myself up into a fearful, paralyzing state of mind that can last for days, weeks even months where I feel mad, totally isolated and alone, overwhelmed and completely out of control.
