I Always Work On New Year's Eve,

Lately I've Been Believing That Music Predates Speech.

The Only Thing I Really Wanted To Be Was A Beatnik, And Look What Happened: I Ended Up Being In A Band.

If I Had To Spend Equal Time Doing Paintings, And Equal Time Going To Galleries And Doing Art Business, And Equal Time Making Music, And Equal Time Going To Record Companies, Or To The Publicist Or To The Lawyer, Forget It. It Would Take Four Times As Long To Do All That Stuff. Unless I Had A Patron. That's Why Leonardo Da Vinci Was Successful. He Had The Medicis, Right?

Music Is Wonderful. Especially If There's Some Kind Of Content To It.

In Music The Mystical Element Is Definitely There All The Time, And One Can See It. When It Comes To Rock And Roll, When It Comes To Any Kind Of Industry, It's Not There. It's Not There. So It's A Battle Between The Two. Music, Industry.
