- Radiohead are so good they scare me.
- We love Peter Gabriel - great minds think alike.
- I've been to places where people my age had never voted in a democratic election. To go to the voting poll with someone in the former Czechoslovakia, a grown man, and watch him cast his vote for the first time brings tears to your eyes. The right to vote is a privilege I want to remind people of.
- I wouldn't survive ten minutes on American Idol (American Idol (2002)).
- [on punk rock] I found something that was secret; it was dangerous and it was exciting.
- I guess I've figured out that I can't just blabber anything I want to anymore.
- [on once having referred to The Beatles as "elevator music"] I still get death threats about it from Beatles fans. The point that I was trying to make was that I was three years too young for them. I grew up in an era where The Banana Splits, The Archies and The Monkees were the music that I listened to. The Beatles were the music that was playing in the background.
- [on U2's "Beautiful Day"] I love that song. I wish I'd written it, and they know I wish I'd written it. It makes me dance; it makes me angry that I didn't write it.
- [to Tori Amos] I wish I had your audience!
