Now there is no taboo; everything is allowed. But one cannot simply go back to tonality, it’s not the way. We must find a way of neither going back nor continuing the avant-garde. I am in a prison: one wall is the avant-garde, the other wall is the past, and I want to escape.

I don't read such boring things. Life is too short.

I like to stay home and listen to recordings.

But I do not want to use Hungarian verses for British people.

Yes, fractals are what I want to find in my music.

There is a wonderful Hungarian literature, especially in lyric poetry.

For the past ten years I have had no financial problems.
