 I was brought up as a Catholic and went to church every week and took the sacraments. It never really touched the core of my being. |
| It's never easy to write a song. It's the most difficult thing I do. |
| I don't like singing before noon. |
| I've only paid lip service to a spiritual life. |
| I think love has something to do with allowing a person you claim to love to enter a larger arena than the one you create for them. |
| I made two movies before The Police had a hit record: I did Quadrophenia and a film called Radio On. |
| I can't really change my life to accommodate people who are jealous. I don't see why I should. |
| I write the music, produce it and the band plays within the parameters that I set. |
| I'm not speaking as someone who has reached satori or anything else. I'm a student. |
| Yoga introduced me to a style of meditation. The only meditation I would have done before would be in the writing of songs. |
| The Super Bowl is Americana at its most kitsch and fun. |
| Intellectually I'm probably a Republican. |
| I see songs not as a commodity used up when the album goes off the charts, which is often the case with pop songs. I see them as a body of work. Life should be breathed into them. |
| The acceptance of death gives you more of a stake in life, in living life happily, as it should be lived. Living for the moment. |
| I don't understand American football at all. It looks like all-in wrestling with crash helmets. |
| I always stayed fit because I'm a performer, and all of those things help me to perform. |
| I think there's room for both private exploration and group work in Yoga. |
| I was recruited to teach 9-year-olds. I taught for two years. |
| I try to give the media as many confusing images as I can to retain my freedom. What's real is for my children and the people I live with. |
| I do my best work when I am in pain and turmoil. |
