As a teenager, Morello became infatuated with both rock music and politics, as he was almost entirely self-taught on guitar (in fact, he learned the most about the instrument while practicing up to eight hours a day during a stint at Harvard University, where Morello majored in political science).

Undeterred, Morello and the rest of the Rage members enlisted the services of former Soundgarden frontman Chris Cornell, forming the group Civilian which would later be re-dubbed Audioslave.

Therefore beauty is the true monument and spoil of the victory of the soul, when she with heavenly influence beareth rule over material and gross nature, and with her light overcometh the darkness of the body.
There is no doubt but the beautiful women have always more suitors, and be more instantly laid at [approached] in love than the foul; therefore the beautiful always deny, and consequently be more chaste than the foul, which not being sued to, sue to others.

Not I in good sooth (answered master Morello), but I remember rather that I have seen many beautiful women of a most ill inclination, cruel, and spiteful, and it seemeth that (in a manner) it happeneth always so, for beauty maketh them proud, and pride, cruel.
Master Morello seemed then somewhat out of patience, and said: I will not know the thing that toucheth me not, but cause you to be taught how the young men ought to covet this beauty, that are not so fresh and lusty as old men be.
