“I like bringing my poet brain and sensibility to lyrics I write.”

“There is a lot of history buried in Chicago that I still have yet to discover.”

“The lake was always my orienting point when my dad was teaching me how to not get lost. The lake is east, so you'll always know that. It's a weird thing where you can kind of feel where you're at in Chicago, and when I was downtown, I was like, 'Oh, it feels more open over here. That must be east.' It felt like a little secret thing.”

“Relative to its importance, the brain is the most underappreciated opportunity in the world.”

“If you're in somebody's head for 12 hours a day for four weeks, it's like your brain actually wires itself to start thinking that way.”

“I used to want to be a lawyer, but I didn't want to have half my brain sucked out.”
