Statistic Quotes

It'd be great if the record industry wasn't completely falling apart and people's interest in music wasn't totally disappearing. It's sad on a cultural level. Not even from the perspective of being in a band, just as a fan. It's heartbreaking to see how little music means to people in modern times. And people say, "No, no, no - music means more than ever before! People are consuming music at a greater rate!” Well, that doesn't mean anything, that's just a statistic. All that's saying is that people are downloading music more than before. That doesn't mean that they're listening to it, that they know anything about it, or that they're going to see it.

That is a political statistic.

It's estimated that 16 million people in the U.S. have struggled with depression - and I include myself in that statistic. It's real, and it's not shameful, and there is help available. You can bring it to the light, you can tell the truth, you can go to a meeting, you can reach out to a friend. None of us are alone.
