My true function within a society which embraces all of us is to continue an age-old tradition. This tradition is to create images from the depths of the imagination and to give them form, whether visual, intellectual or musical.

Poetry is fascinating. As soon as it begins the poetry has changed the thing into something extra, and somehow prose can go over into poetry.

I remain a humanist. We are a very curious race.

I've seldom become nostalgic or settled.

I'm outside the music I've made. I have no interest in it.

Shiva danced the world into existence... that's a very nice thought.

When we use terms we get confused, yet we have no other way.
