The Endless Chatter Of This

I Just Wanted To Be An Ordinary, Middle-class Person. When I Was At Cambridge I Made Great Efforts To Lose The Last Remnants Of My Cockney Accent.

I Saw A Ghost Once, About 20 Years Ago. It Took The Form Of Someone Coming Out Of A Sleeping Body And Sitting At The Foot Of The Bed.

I Have Always Believed That The Material World Is Governed By Nonmaterial Sources, So That In That Sense 'english Music' Is An Exercise In The Spiritual As Well As The Material. I Have Always Been Attracted To The Gothic And Spiritual Imagination, And I've Always Been Interested In Visionaries.

I Detest Self-regard. If My Work Has Taught Me Anything, It Is That Self-aggrandisement Is Completely Unhistorical.

The Best Years Are When You Know What You're Doing.
