“You're always trying to make each record more autobiographical than th...” — Brian Fallon Quote

“You're always trying to make each record more autobiographical than the last one.”

“It's amazing to me: when people start their career, you write about maybe a couple of topics, and you find that as you grow older, a lot of those topics never resolve, because I think your job as a writer is to pose questions as you see them. I don't know if we're supposed to give answers to people, because I don't know if we have any.”

“I would love to learn how to paint motorcycles and stuff like that. I really, really am fascinated by that.”

“As autobiographical as say the stuff on 'Rumours' was, I don't think we thought of it as such when we were writing it.”

“The stories are not autobiographical, but they're personal in that way. I seem to know only the things that I've learned. Probably some things through observation, but what I feel I know surely is personal.”

“A lot of times people ask about Sparks songs: are they autobiographical in a way? And we don't think so much that they are; it's more a case of coming up with these little stories.”
