"I think that they all mean Grammy nominations and that's really good. We're just so honored to be nominated, don't care at all if...It'd be great to win, but seriously, who cares? We're nominated, and it's an honor to be among all these great artists that we respect and admire. It's just so exciting. It's just icing on an otherwise really well-iced cake," he said with a laugh. Delson added that his friends are sick of hearing about Linkin Park's success. "At a certain point I can't even tell my friends this kind of stuff, because they don't want to hear it."

"The way we went to create this record - 'Hybrid Theory' - was I listened to Craig David's record. I listened to it over and over again, really trying to get into what is garage. I just started, not just feeling garage, but really being garage."
"I probably would have more likely believed that the record would have topped the $4.99 for sale bin at your local record store. So, the fact that it's at the top of anything is cool, but for it to be the best selling album of the year is just ridiculous. I can only say it's because of the extreme dedication and exuberance of our fan base that is really... If you notice that the record has stayed really consistently on the charts, it's because I really think it's because it's a word of mouth record. "
