I can't moan about any of it. I had a great time in the goldfish bowl.

I like to make my voice sound like a piece of tin that's been stuck on the side of a chair, lifted up as far as it would go and then let to spring - "doooiiinng." I like to make it into a piece of metal from time to time and I can do it, both with the movements in my throat and with, uh, my little toys... So I like to take it beyond just a voice, more into the realms of a weapon.

No, I've never thought that I was gay. And that's not something you think. It's something you know.

Does anyone remember laughter?

There's so many parts of your life, you know? People say that you don't get any better after the age of about forty or something like that, as a performer. I find all that to be a misconception. I don't feel bad about the way I present stuff. The calendar and the mirror - they're bastards.

There's nothing new under the sun - you just get a can of paint out.

I don't want to scream 'Immigrant Song' every night for the rest of my life, and I'm not sure I could.
