What hurts people a lot is taking humiliation.

There are people I would like to work with. Its a bit harder, because I live out in the sticks anyway, and plus being in a wheelchair means that I cant really circulate. So I tend to stick to my own thing.

In theory, I'd like to work in a group. But the group I'd like to work in, all the musicians in them are long since dead.

I do think there are deep structural things that are wrong in the world.

There's no field of music which doesn't have good ideas.

The gap between rich and poor is, in fact, widening enormously. This idea of building up the powers of people who are already powerful and keeping everyone else back is a recipe for endless misery and conflict.

I think the people who did well, or are happy, in a youth industry, they define themselves out of the business after a decade or so.
