I despise computers in many ways. I think they’re hopelessly underevolved and overrated.

I can see the use and value of religion, just as I can see the use of mud wrestling, yoga, astronomy and sadomasochism. but I reject the idea that you can't be a deep human being without it or any of them.

Every increase in your knowledge is a simultaneous decrease. You learn and you unlearn at the same time. A new certainty is a new doubt as well.

The point about working is not to produce great stuff all the time, but to remain ready for when you can.

I'm fascinated by musicians who don't completely understand their territory; that's when you do your best work.
