I wanted to make good records. But my problem is I've got a low boredom threshold, so I wanted it to look and sound different with each album, which is really tantamount to suicide, cause people lose it, they lose it - they say: 'I like that, and that's not this.'

I watched Picasso visit the Planet of the Apes, as the masters rot on walls and the angels eat the grapes.

I have loved eight women in my life. I remember every woman's face.

I didn't lose my virginity until I was 18 The first time was a nightmare. Who shows you how to use a condom?

When they saw you kneeling, crying words you mean. Opening their eyeballs, eyeballs, pretending that your Al Green, Al Green.

To me, style is consistency.
