Whatever is going on in your life when you're writing has to somehow seep into your work.

I think comedy and music are both things that we need as human beings. I think that both art forms can touch people.

After I've done the salesman bit, I like to be quiet and retreat, because that's whereI write from. I'm a sort of quiet little person.

My desire was never to be famous. It was to try and create something interesting musically if I could.

The great thing about art on any level is that it can speak to all people if it's achieved properly.

To say that you like music is a bit like saying youlike the whole world.

I will say it is great to have a woman in charge of the country.
