If you want to know who the oppressed minorities in america are, simply look at who gets their own shelf in the bookstore. a black shelf, a women's shelf, and a gay shelf.

First let me report that the art in the barnes collection has never looked better. my trips to the old barnes were always amazing, but except on the sunniest days, you could barely see the art. the building always felt pushed beyond its capacity.

I often feel like a dinosaur. i don't get the technology thing at all. i was on the internet not long ago for barnes and noble, and people were ringing up from all over the world - australia, canada, france. i experienced it as an informal chat, which was pleasant, but i couldn't quite take it in. it had a strong element of unreality. i can't be bothered to switch to a computer at my age, though i might get along with e-mail, which sounds appealing.

Never sound pompous. you always sound noble, noble. absolute character of music is nobility. even popular music can be noble, you see. if it's not noble, then it's not very good... music is an art of emotion, of nobility, of dignity, of greatness, of love, of tenderness. all that must be brought out in music but never a show of pompousness.

... everyone's free to embark on either a great clipper or a little fishing boat. an artist is an explorer who oughtn't to shrink from anything: it doesn't matter whether he goes to the left or the right -- his goal sanctifies all.

When you're an artist you're speaking about life, you're talking about your experience here on the planet. so essentially, that's what i do when i'm writing songs.
