This sounds horribly pretentious, but I like to think that if music hadn't existed, I could have invented it.

I'm not a music lover in the sense that I look for something to have on. I've never had that attitude to music.

I didn't have a record player.

You either are or you're not.

Music is such a problem in the time it takes.

I'm not an architectural composer.

It's the irrational things that interest me.
