In the '60s we fought for peace, when the Vietnam war was on. We were against the cops and against the politicians, and there was a lot of waving banners and all that. And I think in a way, just as they were enjoying that machoism of war, we were enjoying the machismo of being anti-war, you know?

Image
I have to be pretty inclusive. I have to be pretty much inside of me rather than going out and finding out what people are doing. I don't have the time to. I just listen to my mind, in a way.

If people want to make war they should make a color war, and paint each others’ cities up in the night in pinks and greens.

Image
The first idea, the first art piece I ever did, was when I was four. I cut the seed of a pear in half and the seed of an apple in half in put those two halves together and planted the seed, hoping a very strange tree might grow. And I never stopped.

Why do they cover Paul's songs but never mine?

Everyone is an artist and a genius, I think. If we don't choose to limit ourselves then we are totally accomplished.

At least I had that, one guy understood me.

Unclog your mind. Unclog your room. Arrange your room in a way you wish your mind would be.

In the Second World War, I was a little girl. I was evacuated in my country.

I'm just trying to do my best every day, hoping that I have done my best every day, and its very easy in a way, but also it's not that easy. Every day counts.

DJs are in incredible competition, musically. And they are the most musically creative and sensitive people in all the music charts. I am amazed how they are.

Anger is an emotion that is very energetic. It is an ideal emotion to turn it around to make it work as a positive force.
