She was a stirrer of the pot, a lover of intrigue and distress, a creature who seemed to draw oxygen from the spectacle of people at each other's throat, everybody in a state of upset and talking about her.

More quotes by David Gilmour
The music tends to be an expression of one's darker moments.
David Gilmour
I don't want to be a full-time member of Pink Floyd all my life.
David Gilmour
I am working on current material, a new album, and that is all still my main motivation of going out and working. We haven't gotten rid of all the new stuff in favor of the old.
David Gilmour
Jimi Hendrix isn't as good as me!
David Gilmour
I find it incredibly difficult to write anything that's really happy.
David Gilmour
People in Italy seem to be very capable of singing along with 'Wish You Were Here' perfectly, yet it's hard to get someone in the street who speaks english.
David Gilmour
I tend to fly old airplanes and old sort of things that are nearly about as old as me. Biplanes and stuff like that.
David Gilmour
I've sort of remarried a few years ago and have had a couple more children in the last couple of years. And so home life is taking up a lot of my time.
David Gilmour
I've been in The Who, I've been in The Beatles and I've been in Pink Floyd! Top that!
David Gilmour
My technique is laughable at times. I have developed a style of my own, I suppose, which creeps around. I don't have to have too much technique for it. I've developed the parts of my technique that are useful to me. I'll never be a very fast guitar player. I don't really know what to say about my style. There's always a melodic intent in there.
David Gilmour
To be honest, I don't listen to groups, really. Hardly ever. I know I'm in one, but I don't like them very much.
David Gilmour
I think a lot of things do influence me, but the influence mechanism is as such that these things dive into your brain and bury themselves into your subconscious and you're never quite sure where and how they're going to emerge. I don't think I really take direct influence.
David Gilmour
If you have a live reputation and your popularity is proven that way, then you're bound to get signed up because they see all those people buying those tickets and they think some of those people will buy those records, and that's what their business is primarily about.
David Gilmour
It's a very tempting thing to try and relive your glory days when you get a little older and you worry that people have forgotten all about you.
David Gilmour
The idea of going around to somebody else's flat or house and sitting around in a comfy room and having a really good hi-fi system and listening to a whole album all the way through, then chatting for a few minutes, then maybe putting another album on . . . does that happen today?
David Gilmour
Where would rock and roll be without feedback?
David Gilmour
I haven't felt compelled to go back in the studio and do anything serious. I have a little sort of home studio thing which I potter about in occasionally.
David Gilmour
It's not whether God plays dice it's how God plays dice.
David Gilmour
I remember Adrian [Maben, director] had lots of problems with red tape and dealing with stuff. I think we lost two or three days. Maybe those were the days we had to walk around the summit of Vesuvius, and we went around to the sulfur pits where the ground is bubbling. It's near here. It's fantastic.
David Gilmour
Everyone goes to rotten schools when they're kids, don't they?
David Gilmour
