1 Age

  • 1. Setting a good example for your children takes all the fun out of middle age.
  • 2. I don't want to fight aging I want to take good care of myself but plastic surgery and all that? I'm not interested.
  • 3. My wife and I unlike many intellectuals spent five years working on assembly lines. We came to fully understand the criticisms of the industrial age in which you are an appendage of a machine that sets the pace.

2 Amazing

  • 1. It was an amazing experience to work with Michael Jackson who is a legend.
  • 2. The most amazing thing to me about the sea is the tide. A harbour like St. Ives is totally transformed in a very short space of time by the arrival or departure of the sea.
  • 3. You know it's amazing. I don't even have a car would you believe it? I had a motorbike and it got stolen last year. So I've got to buy another one of those I suppose. I can treat myself to that.

3 Anger

  • 1. Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.
  • 2. Generalised anger and frustration is something that gets you in the studio and gets you to work – though it's not necessarily evident in anything that's finished.
  • 3. All anger is not sinful because some degree of it and on some occasions is inevitable. But it becomes sinful and contradicts the rule of Scripture when it is conceived upon slight and inadequate provocation and when it continues long.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. The concept of two people living together for 25 years without a serious dispute suggests a lack of spirit only to be admired in sheep.
  • 2. My mother and stepfather were married 43 years so I have watched a long marriage. I feel like I had a very good role model for that. And you know it's just a number.
  • 3. I didn't make my first solo record until 1981 so I don't have any 60's or 70's recordings but I am working on a large boxed set called DUST to be released next year the 20th anniversary of my first solo record.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Less is more.
  • 2. I like things that are kind of eclectic when one thing doesn't go with another. That's why I love Rome. The town itself is that way. It's where Fascist architecture meets classic Renaissance where the ancient bangs up against the contemporary. It has a touch of everything. That's my style and that's what my work is about.
  • 3. I search for surprise in my architecture. A work of art should cause the emotion of newness.
