"What I respect is truth, therefore I can't respect what opposes truth. Just as the jurist's motto is: fiat justitia et pereat mundus, [Let justice be done though the world perish] so my motto is: vigeat veritas et pereat mundus, [Let truth prosper though the world perish] Every profession ought to have an analogous device"- Schopenhauer
"And at noon there will fall a hush upon the harbor And they'll ask: Who's to die? And then you'll hear me order firmly: All! when the heads fall I'll cry: Hoppla!
And the ship with eight sails And with fifty cannons Will sail off with me"- Lotte Lenya
"If hymns were rock music sung to worship whatever you happened to believe in then it would sound like Zak Smith...These are the thoughts of a man in his mid-twenties. Rather than confounding us with wisdom beyond his years he is being true to himself and singing about what he actually knows and with that comes a certain frankness. Combine that with a soulful but raw voice and guitars that are alive with riffs and energy"-Glasswerk.com album review.
