In an interview with Rolling Stone in March 2025, Mr. Weir spoke about death. “I’ll say this: I look forward to dying. I tend to think of death as the last and best reward for a life well-lived. That’s it,” Mr. Weir said. “I’ve still got a lot on my plate, and I won’t be ready to go for a while.” “If I find myself being proud of something, I try to find the challenges that are associated with that, because I don’t trust pride,” Mr. Weir added. “I try not to allow myself to go there. Being prideful is not going to get you much of anywhere, as far as I can see.”
