Children, after all, are not just adults-in-the-making. They are people whose current needs and rights and experiences must be taken seriously.

I’ve found what makes children happy doesn’t always prepare them to be courageous, engaged adults.

Are you the adult that you want your child to grow up to be?

The purpose of adult education is to help them to learn, not to teach them all you know and thus stop them from learning.

Adult life is dealing with an enormous amount of questions that don’t have answers. So I let the mystery settle into my music. I don’t deny anything, I don’t advocate anything, I just live with it.

We are the most illusioned society on the planet. We have to become adults. And it’s hard; it’s painful. I struggle with despair all the time. But I’m not going to let it win. It is incumbent upon all of us that at the same time we recognize how dark the future is, we also recognize the absolute imperative of resistance in every form possible.
