Artists aren't really people. And I'm actually 40 per cent papier mache.

Can you squeeze me into an empty page of your diary and psychologically save me?

I've gone through managers like people go through shredded wheat. Nobody looks after you.

You made me feel less alone; you made me feel not quite so deformed, uninformed and hunchbacked.

It takes strength to be gentle and kind.

I've only been to Ireland once, and I felt I would wake up with voices in my head, almost like music, and that if I were a songwriter, I would be very inspired.

I once bought a Manchester United hat, which I think was 12 shillings, and somebody ran up behind me and pulled it off and just ran ahead. I thought, 'It's a very cruel world, I'm not prepared for this'. And I decided to get my revenge on society.
