The Daryls House thing has made me into a live musician even more than I ever was, and even in the way I record.

Around 1974, I graduated into the occult, and spent a sold six or seven years immersed in the Kabala and the Chaldean, Celtic, and Druidic traditions I also became fascinated with Aleister Crowley, the nineteenth-century magician who shared these beliefs.

I love antique architecture, so if I have any indulgences, I have owned and renovated and reconstructed a lot of old houses.

Being at college, I think that's the time when you really start searching for things outside yourself.

I never felt entitled to anything. I'm the hardest worker I know.

Most artists try to avoid cliches, but it's pretty hard to avoid them if you yourself end up being one.

Nobody's going to sell 10 million records by not working hard.
