Fate is gonna find you in your glass of champagne.

Somebody asked me what I wanted to do. I just said I wanted to…just to give back to it what it’s given me. And to meet all the other people that are doing it…just to be in the world, really.

I just want to have a completely adventurous, passionate, weird life.

I have no advice for anybody; except to, you know, be awake enough to see where you are at any given time, and how that is beautiful, and has poetry inside. Even places you hate.

If you feel blocked, do not turn to others, but look inside, in silence, for the enemy of your progress.

love is not a victory march, it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah.

I love anything that haunts me...and never leaves

Love, anger, depression, joy and dreams. ...And Zeppelin. Totally.

When all of this music sounds like you know what you want to say, then it will have been of all worth, ever. You will be something complete unto yourself, present and unique.

There's the moon asking to stay long enough for the clouds to fly me away

Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and run

Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, Faith looks up

One of my biggest flaws is I don't take advice.

It's tough to strike out. Believe me. I hate striking out. It's no fun. It's embarrassing. But there really isn't anything I can do. It's just a part of my game.

The lies we tell about our duty and our purposes, the meaningless words of science and philosophy, are walls that topple before a bewildered little ‘why’.

There is no such thing as a Difficult Piece. A piece is either impossible - or it is easy. The process whereby it migrates from one category to the other is known as practicing.

A kiss on the hand might feel very good, but a diamond tiara is forever.

The ball whizzes past like a bumblebee and the Indians are in the sea.

For to cast away a virtuous friend, I call as bad as to cast away one's own life, which one loves best.

The rest of Europe tends to be very comfortable with sexuality. The British and the Americans are kind of hung up about it.

Winding up days with toil and nights with sleep.
