I advise everyone to find an island in this life. Find a place where this culture can't take energy away from you, sap your will and originality.

I feel like I've spent the last five years of my life on the road. It hasn't affected my songs but it's probably affected everything else about me.

The boy was lying, fast asleep, on a rude bed upon the floor; so pale with anxiety, and sadness, and the closeness of his prison, that he looked like death; not death as it shews in shroud and coffin, but in the guise it wears when life has just departed; when a young and gentle spirit has, but an instant, fled to Heaven: and the gross air of the world has not had time to breathe upon the changing dust it hallowed.
Charles Dickens
