I'm a long way off finishing the LP, but I've got an idea in my head of exactly how I want it to look and sound.

It's nice to just do my hobby and be able to live.

My uncle was a music producer and even he'd tell me to get a proper job. I tried to get him to give me five grand to make an album - it didn't happen.

I understand people have to go to work and earn money and bring up kids, but I always thought, "Why can't I just do what I want to do?"

I want to move away from sampling records and just have it be quite minimal. I don't want any more hip-hop beats in there.

Maybe I should disappear and not make anymore music. I mean, I think I'd take it really badly if I got slayed.

I was really into hip-hop as a teenager. I dressed up like Tupac with baggy jeans and a dodgy bandanna around my head. I was pretty confused at that time.

There's just so much stuff that sounds like Flying Lotus now - I really like what he does, but I don't want to be like him. The new stuff is more experimental.

I'm more confident in my music now because people are saying it's good - I'm trying to believe it, but it's very difficult. I don't know if it's going to end in disaster.

I usually find stuff that I hope no one really knows or cares about. If I'm ripping off something that's already brilliant, what's the point?

I have loads of stuff that never came out because I really don't think it's good enough.

In the race of life, the Person leading is the Enemy of All those coming Behind.

I go jogging for 25 minutes every morning, even if I'm away from home.

The sort of movies I make are not ones that can easily be sold upfront, so I have to make them and prove their mettle before I can sell them.

Gabrielle turned to Colm. “These men will be of interest to you.” Colm looked them over. “Why is that?” he asked. With her back to the infidels, she whispered, “They like to dig holes.

I’ll tell you this, I may be dead but my ideas will not die.

We are on the cusp of this time where I can say, "I speak as a citizen of the world" without others saying, "God, what a nut."

I had to watch the Republican stuff which makes me feel even older than I am. By the time I get through the Democrats, I may be dead. I don't know how much older I can get.

Celebrate exceptional productivity, rather than raise average efforts.

Usually, the subject matter of the image is not the subject of the work.

The most base of men can be civilized through suffering.
