The first opera I went to see was Maria Callas singing 'Tosca'.

Feminism is the best thing to come out of the '60's.

I get all dressed up with that Marianne Faithfull face, and the next thing I know, I'm blurting out things that I shouldn't, trying to get attention when, really, I've got everybody's attention already.

I don't like the compression on compact discs. It's lacking in air, and it's lacking in majesty.

I'm never, never sure which way to go. I'm full of unsureness. That's been a habit for years. I never really want to commit.

I come from a very left wing Socialist family, anti-war and anti-empire.

I'm a Capricorn, and they flower late.
