What I'm attempting to do is to show people that if I can spend some time with very dangerous spiders and snakes and scorpions, then maybe they'll feel different about the spiders and snakes they find around their areas. I don't need people to keep t...
Sour Patch, Swedish Fish. I love candy, man. I can't go without candy. And when I'm recording, I always have a TV on with cartoons - on mute, though. When I'm recording, I like to look at the TV now and then and see some crazy, wacky stuff. When you'...
When I was a boy, I had a baseball team of my own. We played on a vacant lot between Ninetieth and Ninety-second streets. I had a little menagerie of my own, some pigeons, guinea pigs, and so on. On Saturday mornings, I had to take my music lesson. T...
I'm a rapper... Gaga's a fantastic artist, you know, she paved her way. She's opened her own lane. But I think that I have my own lane. And we never cross. Ever. So, you know, I really don't get the comparison anymore. Our music doesn't sound the sam...
Dennis Hope: [on the airplane which is caught in an electrical storm] I once hit a man in Dearborn, Michigan. A hit and run. I hit him and just kept on going. I don't know if he's alive or dead... but I'm sorry. Not a day goes by I don't see his face...

I see Sarah framed in the light of her doorway and it is like looking at a painting that emanate a mixture of wishes and truths about someone I loved - from a time I can already vividly remember. I wonder if this is a hazard of being a writer: a sens...
When I came out of service, the first couple of releases didn't really hit so I just took a little hiatus and sat down to see what was happening. I just glued my ears to the radio and then I started writing - the first hit record that came out was 'E...

Send a boy where he wants to go and you see his best pace.
A light is still a light-even though the blind man cannot see it.
A curious woman is capable of turning around the rainbow just to see what is on the other side.
If you see in your wine the reflection of a person not in your range of vision, don't drink it.
Only through the eyes of others can we really see our own faults.
Put your hand in your conscience and see if it does not come out as black as pitch.
Who is so deaf or so blind as he that willfully will neither hear nor see?
Who is so deaf or so blind as he/ That wilfully will neither hear nor see?
If you see your neighbor's beard burning then wet your own.
See that your own hearth is swept before you lift your neighbor's ashes.
A blind man sat behind a pile of stones and thought that nobody could see him.
