... I simply accept that technology is stronger and more powerful than me: it works when it wants to, and when it doesn't its best to go for a walk, and just wait until the cables and telephone links are in a better mood and the computer decides to work again. I am not, I have discovered, my computers master: it has a life of its own.

Men dream more about coming home than about leaving.

My aim is to understand love. I know how alive I felt when I was in love, and I know that everything I have now, however interesting it might seem, doesn't really excited me.

I'm like everyone else—I see the world in terms of what I would like to see happen, not what actually does.

Elegance is accepted and admired because it makes no effort to be elegant.

Everything is allowed, except interrupting a manifestation of love.

I closed my eyes and let the music flow through me, cleansing my soul of all fear and sin and reminding me that I am always better than I think and stronger than I believe.
