There are things so deep and complex that only intuition can reach it in our stage of development as human beings.

United Artists wanted to do records with me. I had no idea, what a rare thing that was... to make an album. And they put a guy with me working on songs, and I got busy with films. I just kind of let it slide. Isn't that amazing?

The world is, for the most part, a collective madhouse, and practically everyone, however "normal" his facade, is faking sanity.

One life is worth the universe. Poe was able to go right into the very depth of life and to demonstrate this.

I figure I basically am a ghost. I think we all are.

People are transported to that space that Poe wanted to make available to us.

I guess one of the reasons I'm doing the Poe piece is that I think Poe demonstrates that no matter how difficult things are, if you continue to move forward in life, you can eventually become victorious, even if it's later in life.
