I am definitely interested in soundtracks that one might associate with fantasy or sci-fi – they tend to be rich with musical ideas.

I don’t mean to romanticise the struggle, that leads to all kinds of terrible violence and absurdities that are even worse than the perverse immediate gratification.

I don’t really know what playing is. There’s a way to do it correctly, but it eludes me. I think getting in front of an audience is definitely a good way to focus in on the real dimension of the activity, the most important dimension.

I have no idea what the hell is going on in the world, in my life, in what anything means, or what I’m supposed to do.

I think it’s better to just say nothing at all than to just send two words.

Thinking

I would never want to kill a human being.
