“No one thought up being. He who thinks he has, step forward.”

Hatred is a very underestimated emotion.

Sex is full of lies. The body tries to tell the truth. But, it’s usually too battered with rules to be heard, and bound with pretenses so it can hardly move.

Each day is a drive through history.

Music inflames temperament.

There are no laws, there are no rules, just grab your friend and love him.

They fight anyone who tries to break those chains. It’s their security How can they expect me or anyone else to set them free if they don’t really want to be free?

No one here gets out alive.

Cinema returns us to anima, religion of matter, which gives each thing its special divinity and sees gods in all things and beings.

I think people resist freedom because they’re afraid of the unknown. But it’s ironic.

I like to let each thing happen – direct it a little consciously, maybe – but just kind of follow the vibrations I get in each particular circumstance.

Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them. That’s what real love amounts to – letting a person be what he really is.

Death makes angels of us all and gives us wings where we had shoulders smooth as ravens claws.

The sound of glass speaks quick, disdain and conceals what your eyes fight to explain.

Some people surrender their freedom willingly but others are forced to surrender it. Imprisonment begins with birth.

You have a lot of small choices. It’s like . . . I guess it’s the difference between suicide and slow capitulation . . .

Actually I don’t remember being born, it must have happened during one of my black outs.

In the creative sense, I’m looking forward to collaborating with people I have mutual respect for to create some really good work.

Courage is holding on one minute longer than everyone else. Courage is stepping forward when every fiber of your being says step back.

He’s not just the best centre-forward in the British Isles, but the only one. (about Ian St John)

My dad always took to his heels when a nappy change was necessary. I am so much looking forward to our child. It is such a wonderfully exciting time right now.

Too often boring players have been pushed forward as great by figures alone. For sheer entertainment, he will keep cricket alive.

They say either get right or get left, how about I just go forward and never look back.

I need to set an example, which is great, and I look forward to doing just that.

Claim your place in the sun and go forward into the light. The tools are there; the path is known; you simply have to turn your back on a culture that has gone sterile and dead, and get with the programme of a living world and a re-empowerment of the imagination.
