I'm trying to be slightly happier with myself. No one really wants to be miserable all the time.

I liked taking the elements of roadside advertising out of context because it removes the imperative and just goes to the essence of it - the pure heart of advertising.

I come from a generation in England that considered making money or trying to promote yourself to be morally suspect.

In America, the colors sing, they don't just glower at you. The West Coast especially is fantastic. It seems like you can do whatever you want here.

Computers don't seem real to me because there's a sheet of glass between you and whatever is happening.

The music is a continuing thing.

Music is something you hear in your head, that's all, we shouldn't give it more than it is.

I really love it when you get that strange combination of feelings that play against each other.

The packaging for music has become a sort of King James Bible, where it elevates the contents to something more spiritual. This is something else that drove me to a newspaper format. I thought, Let's put it in a newspaper, to get away from that spiritual thing.
