When I came back I had to realize that IC was not in a very good shape - all the much money that we had because of the huge Ideal success, was gone. I was very upset.

Because, also the world of showbiz is not just black and white, good and bad.

The human voice is the first and most natural musical instrument, also the most emotional.

As always in a musical collaboration: One has to like each other. As simple as that.

Everything changes permantly. How boring if it wouldn't.

I never had many problems to do my music and to give it to a record company. Rarely do they try to argue with me about my music, probably because it's still too far-out.

Every music - except dance music, which is for dancing, I suppose - is for the spirit of the human being, and not for the body.

A concert is a concert is a concert is a concert. An album is an album is an album is an album. Musically, both have nothing in common.

As everyone else, I was a fan of Pink Floyd in the sixties.

And of course, the musician - if he's serious - always answers: My last album is my best, otherwise I wouldn't have done it.

We are all part of a tradition, at least we depend on the past.

Is a dream the ultimate freedom, or the ultimate prison?

Don't you understand? I want to spend my life with you. I want you to be there when I go to bed at night and when I wake up in the morning.

Unless you can fake sincerity, you'll get nowhere in this business.

A small house must depend on its grouping with other houses for its beauty, and for the preservation of light air and the maximum of surrounding open space.

For the folk-community does not exist on the fictitious value of money but on the results of productive labour, which is what gives money its value.

Really, life is complicated enough without having a bunch of Senators deciding what we should do in the privacy of our own homes.

I don't wanta hear all your word descriptions of words words words you made up all winter, man I wanta be enlightened by actions.

No matter how much work a man can do, no matter how engaging his personality may be, he will not advance far in business if he cannot work through others.

Very little happens in my books.

I published a bunch of my older books in e-book format with Open Road, which is great and has tons of hard to find older books available there.
