Love is the distance between reality and pain.

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.

The Beatles were something everyone had in common; this was thirty years ago, there was Dr. Who and everybody knew who the Daleks were and there was The Beatles and everybody knew who George Harrison was.

I'm good at line-drawing, and some of my color stuff is okay. So I just do it for record covers.

As soon as someone like me or David Lynch pops up everyone says hallelujah, how weird.
