Acid gave me a clinical, unblinking look at madness, and I discovered I wasn't brave enough to be insane.

The idea of having Australians upset at me is just awful.

If Scotland and America go to war, I'm afraid I've already sworn in.

I realize that I am not a journalist. So anything I say is not important.

The Universe is very, very big. It also loves a paradox. For example, it has some extremely strict rules. Rule number one: Nothing lasts forever. Not you or your family or your house or your planet or the sun. It is an absolute rule. Therefore when someone says that their love will never die, it means that their love is not real, for everything that is real dies. Rule number two: Everything lasts forever.

We do have a big kind of history in literate tradition of Vikings and we have a lot of Viking blood in Scotland, I mean especially up north wherever you go you see a plastic Viking sitting outside a shop and Viking calendars and - because they - you know they came down and stole all our chicks and then some of them didn't quite get back and ended up settling down here. So there's a lot of Viking blood in Scotland.

If you know anything about me - and, if you do, I'm sorry that your life turned out like that.
