I'm writing a movie about Mozart going to New York in the '60s. I've been reading so many novels.

I want to get lean and mean, keep it minimalist.

It would be a stronger world, a stronger, loving world, to die in.

I'm content with making records, but I don't want to be doing the same thing all the time.

I like it here in New York. I like the idea of having to keep eyes in the back of your head all the time.

The avant-garde makes more sense to me.

Everyone should be encouraged...in spiration and artistic freedom is the cornerstone of rock and roll.
