“Wives and girlfriends really shouldn't be anywhere near the band. Not at all. Anyone who's listening to their girlfriend, they shouldn't be involved. All bands have Yoko Onos, and the Mondays were no exception.”

“I felt alien my whole life, but I didn't feel alien because of my gender. Other people made me aware of my gender.”

“MAVNI was never intended to be utilized for the benefit of illegal aliens.”

“I love monsters, I love creatures, I love beings, I love aliens. That's more supernatural and more the stuff of fairy tales. Fairy tales are as ancient as we are. I love those stories.
