More From Ben Harper

Interviews, when they are just simply an exercise in hearing what you want to hear, are of no interest. and many, many, if not most interviews have that character. the interviewer who comes in with a list of bullet points they're going to address one after the other. interviews, properly considered, should be investigative. you should not know what you're going to hear. you should be surprised.

Life by the yard is hard; by the inch it's a cinch. each of us can be true for just one day--and then one more and then one more after that--until we've lived a lifetime guided by the spirit, a lifetime close to the lord, a lifetime of good deeds and righteousness.

It's a funny thing about stories. it doesn't feel like you make them up, more like you find them. you type and type and you know you haven't got it yet, because somewhere out there, there's that perfect thing -- the unexpected ending that was always going to happen. that place you've always been heading for, but never expected to go.
