I've always put myself intensely into my work..

I don't see the point in working just to be working..

Better not to work on things that you're not in love with..

I'm a free agent. I want the major-label budget for my next album, but I'm too big for the label to pay me. I don't want to be controlled, to be wate….

It's not so much do what you like as it is that you like what you do..

When I practiced, I practiced to get it right..

What we do belongs to what we are; and what we are is what becomes of us..

‎A change of work is the best rest..

When someone tells me not to do something, I'll do it more..

The something of somewhere is mostly just the nothing of nowhere..

Love which economizes is never true love..

Jewishness cropped up and has never successfully been put down since..

I didn't like some of the movies that were coming into me.

All the backstories are there but not talked about..

What I love I destroy. What I destroy, I love..

I don't do live things..

I tell it like it is. I tell it like I see it. I tell it like I envision it. I tell it like I live it..

Nobody understands your life, but you..

It's not the words but the music that counts..

It is poetry that changes everything..

Once you reach what is / inside it is outside..
