Personal Quotes

Ladies and gentlemen, I've suffered for my music, now it's your turn.

Freedom is the handle on the bucket of your soul, the image of illusion in the goldfish of your bowl, the shampoo of perfection in the bathroom of your dreams, freedom is the universe and everything it seems, oh yes, we are the slaves of freedom.
