My liberty is about living. It's about spreading more love. Even though I was always a peaceful, loving individual, my music sometimes didn't reflect that. But now it's different. My music is reflecting the way I feel. ↗

Vengeance is not the point; change is. But the trouble is that in most people's minds the thought of victory and the thought of punishing the enemy coincide. ↗

Take air quality in the United States today: It's about 30 percent better than it was 25 years ago, even though there are now more people driving more cars. ↗
