More of me comes out when I improvise..

You have to take everything as it comes..

It is far better to be free to govern or misgovern yourself than to be governed by anybody else.

Death isn't sad. There's nothing sad about it. Living a shitty life, that's sad..

I've never been onstage in my life..

You change the rules or you are going under..

My idea of heaven is a place where the Tyne meets the Delta, where folk music meets the blues..

Where ever I am not is the place where I am myself..

It is not only not right, it is not even wrong..

God is always near us. Always for us. Always in us..

I'm only interested in poetry..

All the backstories are there but not talked about..
