It's no good being nice and young and naive. There's no good in that at all. You've got to do it all yourself, and you've gotta learn quick. And you can't look for sympathy either.

My words are my bullets.

If you are pissing people off, you know you are doing something right

I always knew the Sixties wasn't a revolution. It really was just a bunch of university students with wealthy parents having fun.

I'm a great self-doubter. I constantly need to prove myself to myself. I've never run to heroin or alcohol to hide that. I always have to deal with it. Stage fright is always going to be there. I have nightmares about bad gigs.

It's an absurdity to just wish for a world of chaos without anything viable in its place. I'm loyal to my culture, my creed, the human race and my people and I don't want to see them all end up in a Mad Max movie.

Analog, electronic, whatever it happens to be, I simply love and adore literally every aspect of making music.
