Janey accuses me of chasing jailbait. She bursts into angry tears, asking if it's because she's getting older. It's true. She's aging more noticeably every day — while I am standing still.

As far as I can see, it's not important that we have free will, just as long as we have the illusion of free will to stop us going mad.

The things we do without the fear of failure and the desire for success are the purest acts we'll ever do

To some degree Satanism is purely a kind of disease of Christianity. You've got to really be Christian to believe in Satan.

The Here-and-Now demands attention, is more present to us. We dismiss the inner world of our ideas as less important, although most of our immediate physical reality originated only in the mind. The TV, sofa, clock and room, the whole civilisation that contains them once were nothing save ideas.

It is not the job of artists to give the audience what the audience want. If the audience knew what they needed, then they wouldn’t be the audience. They would be the artist. It is the job of artists to give the audience what they need
