I Think The Personality Is Formed At That Time, For The Good And For The Bad. ... We All Want To Grow Up And Move On And Appear To Be Different To People. And We Want People To See Us In A Different Way. But, I Don't Know, I Think The Personality Is Very, Very Strongly Cemented, And We Just Bear Whatever Shortcomings We Have And Learn To Live With It.

The Rhino Is Now More Or Less Extinct, And It's Not Because Of Global Warming Or Shrinking Habitats. It's Because Of Beyonce's Handbags.

I Began To Go To Concerts When I Was 12 Years Old. And I Would Stand There, The Small Imp That I Was, And I Would Expect The World To Be Laid Before Me By These Artists, And In Some Cases It Was.

I Like To Think That There Is A Clear Majority Of People Who's Be Supportive Of The Idea, It Does Save The Existing Industry. It Does Provide Hundreds Of Millions Of Dollars For The Commonwealth.

Whenever I’d Overhear How People Found Me To Be ‘a Bit Much’ (which Is The Gentle Way Of Saying The Word ‘unbearable’), I Understood Why. To Myself I Would Say: Well, Yes Of Course I’m A Bit Much — If I Weren’t, I Would Not Be Lit Up By So Many Lights.

I Didn't Really See The British Punk Movement, If That's What It Was, As Wildly Original, Because I Had Been Listening So Intently To All The New York Music Since 1973, Really.

I'm Capable Of Looking On The Bright Side. I Just Don't Do It Very Often.

I Think Labels For The Most Part Want To Sign New Discoveries So That That Label Alone Is Seen To Be Responsible For The Rise Of The Artist. Not Many Labels Want Bands Who Have Already Made Their Mark, Because Their Success Is Usually Attributed To Some Other Label Somewhere Else At Another Time.

My Family, Although They're Very Large On Both My Parents' Sides, They Don't Know Much About Their Family Tree. Occasionally, They Try To Dig, But They Can't Get Very Far, And It's Baffling.

I Find That It Isn't Wise To Attempt To Judge People On Their Public Persona, And Even On The Music They Make. Because I've Met So Many People Whose Music I Cannot Stand, And They're Very Nice.
