Bono on the Muse

(Filed under: Inspiration)

"I used to stay out late and try to walk the muse home. Now I get up fresh-faced at 7 a.m. and take advantage of her while she's passing out."

Bono on Cathedrals and Alleyways

(Filed under: Spirituality)

"There's cathedrals and the alleyway in our music. I think the alleyway is usually on the way to the cathedral, where you can hear your own footsteps and you're slightly nervous and looking over your shoulder and wondering if there's somebody following you. And then you get there and you realize there was somebody following you: It's God."

Amber Tamblyn on God

(Filed under: Spirituality)

"One of my good friends is Christian, goes to church every Sunday, very religious. I’m fine with that and I will never judge her. And one of my other friends could not believe in God if he came down and tapped her on the shoulder. She’s a biologist—a student at UCLA—and I don’t judge her either, because I really believe that God is a personal opinion, and only that. It’s a matter of how you use God in your own life and I don’t think it’s anything really beyond that. And that’s where the core strength comes from."
