When I'm on my own with my camera, taking these pictures, it feels as if I am in a room of my own, a self-contained world.

Pissing in a river, watching it rise.

Since I was a child, I hated having to deal with my hair. I hated having to change my clothes. As a kid, I had a sailor shirt and the same old corduroy pants, and that's what I wanted to wear everyday.

Sometimes you write passages that don't need to be rewritten. Performance is that for me. Improvisation, things that happen in the moment, are sometimes wonderful, or wonderful as a moment to be shared between performer and people, but that's it. There might be a strong bond between you and the people, a transformative night, but as a live record it might not translate.

The two things that constantly inspired me were books and travel.

I wasn't taking drugs or drinking. I was working and working and working. But I wasn't writing anything.

I think it's important for people to realize that we were all young, all naive, and also we had lived in a time that had magic.
