There's nothing in the future and there's nothing in the past. There is only this one moment, and you've got to make it last.

If I played just one song from every album, I would be onstage for two and a half hours. No one wants a show that long.

The band is like a vintage car. You take it out to go for a spin for a couple miles, but you wouldn't drive across the country.

Every so often you have to increase your profile so you can let it lower again, like a balloon.

Generally, I have an instinct for the noncommercial. And the unpopular.

In this world of doubt, one thing is certain for me; that I will go on writing songs up to and - I hope, through heavenly means or diabolical - beyond the day I die.

Like trillions of others, if it wasn't for Bob Dylan, it would have been a different musical landscape. Pop music wouldn't have been my thing at all. I did also grow up listening to The Beatles, but I never thought of being a Beatle.
