From Gathering Mercury on Compass: http://bit.ly/obsOTG
"I've spent a lot of time traveling in the past couple of decades, and I realized that every time I woke up, I was thinking about home, and where exactly that was. But over the last couple of years, I've realized that no matter where I am, whether it's Melbourne, Portland or Manhattan --wherever I am playing -- it is as much as home as anywhere. The present moment is all you have, and you can't spend your whole life wishing you were somewhere else. And on a global scale, 'Far From Home,' is about the planet itself. Here we are, spinning around the sun, miraculous in itself, and whilst humanity has also traveled far, we have seemingly learnt precious little about respect for each other, and the earth upon which we walk."
