I'm not at ease with the word "love."

As you get older, the questions come down to about two or three. How long? And what do I do with the time I've got left?

I was always accused of being cold and unfeeling. It was because I was intimidated about touching people.

Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth.

I was told that it was cool to fall in love, and that period was nothing like that to me. I gave too much of my time and energy to another person and they did the same to me and we started burning out against each other. And that is what is termed love.

I don't believe in proper cinema; it doesn't have the strength of television. People having to go out to the cinema is really archaic. I'd much rather sit at home.

I think much has been made of this alter ego business. I mean, I actually stopped creating characters in 1975 - for albums, anyway.
