Training is doing your homework. It's not exciting. More often than not it's tedious. There is certainly no glory in it.

Writing a book is an adventure. To begin with it is a toy and an amusement. Then it becomes a mistress, then it becomes a master, then it becomes a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster and fling him to the public.

The idea of listening to a record that's in one generic style, it becomes quite boring after the third or fourth song, in my opinion.

And I say it exists entirely in the loop: the self is an hallucination hallucinated by an hallucination.

Every woman becomes their mother. That's their tragedy. And no man becomes his. That's his tragedy.

One's condition on marijuana is always existential. One can feel the importance of each moment and how it is changing one.

I do believe it's possible to play a lot without overplaying. It's when a musician becomes too self-centred that it becomes problematic.

It's about what everyone is doing together.

Just below it is the abyss of sex, and beyond it is the open sky - the infinite sky of devotion.

Writing becomes beautiful when it becomes specific, concrete.
