I'm such an emotional and sensitive person, so it only makes sense that my songs are as well.

I think the most exciting thing is that you expect people our age to know the music, but actually a lot of kids know the music, and if anything is left, we have left really good music, and that's the important part, not the mop-tops or whatever.

Old age and sickness bring out the essential characteristics of a man.

In a spiritually sensitive culture, then, it might well be that age is something to be admired or envied.

I love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.
