Actually I was writing with people that didn't get records.

I didn't write to be famous; I wrote to keep a record.

It was kind of easier for me to do records that didn't take a year or two years of my life to write and to make.

The first record I spent five years writing and it was an amalgamation of all the things that happened in my life from the time I was fifteen to the time I was twenty.

My original idea was to produce and not make records myself.

There's something very reassuring... about the written record.

All records are riddles, and whatever you may want people to think it's about, it may just be throwing them off. And you don't want it to get in the way of what someone else's understanding is. It's not really about anything. At the same time, it will find some meaning.

I made the record that my life had me make. Each one is like a diary.

I don't think about records.

Making records is fun. It's not some big statement. You're allowed to make mistakes.
