If you do things out of time you're weird.

One of the ideas behind doing this acoustic record is that I didn't want to have to produce it by committee.
Robyn Hitchcock
Image
Playing acoustic and line drawings are the two things I'm most competent at.
Robyn Hitchcock

I thin many people's deviant behavior starts with dreams because dreams are so non-linear... as if there's an assumption that everything has to be linear or has to be plotted.

I was always jealous of something getting more attention.

I don't really have the gift of the sustained narrative that you need to write a book. I've tried a couple of times, and it just doesn't work. But I get some good passages, so what I'm going to do is just take sections out of them.

I don't advocate Stalinist monolithic state structures any more than I advocate capitalistic monoliths. Unfortunately, human society tends to the monolithic, whether you go to the left or right, everybody in leathers, or everybody holding Chairman Mao's book, and if everybody goes to one end of the pitch, I always go to the other.

I'm 63. It's kind extraordinary that I'm out here at all and people want to see me.
