“When I had nothing, and lived in a small apartment that cost very little because the ceiling leaked, the dream was to be able to live off making music. When I had kids that became even more important. Now it’s about something else. I’m responsible for showing my wife and my kids that all these years of waiting for me have been worth it. And that goes beyond money, because at the end of the day that’s just seasoning. One day my kids will be grown-up and I have to be able to show them that all this time playing rock shows had a real purpose.”

“Lastly I would like to dedicate my work with Ghost to those who have sacrificed and keep sacrificing the most in order for me to able to do this: Boel, Morris and Minou. I love you and I can’t formulate words to describe how utterly appreciative and thankful I am for your support. Tack.”
