"Agressive music can only shock you once. Afterwards its impact declines. It's inevitable."
Music
"People assume that the meaning of a song is vested in the lyrics. To me, that has never been the case. There are very few songs that I can think of where I remember the words."
People
"As soon as I hear a sound, it always suggests a mood to me."
Sound
"I take sounds and change them into words."
Change
"Musicians are there in front of you, and the spectators sense their tension, which is not the case when you're listening to a record. Your attention is more relaxed. The emotional aspect is more important in live music."
Music
"The philosophical idea that there are no more distances, that we are all just one world, that we are all brothers, is such a drag! I like differences."
Idea
"We are increasingly likely to find ourselves in places with background music. No composers have thought to write for these modern spaces, which represent 30% of our musical experience."
Experience
"When I started making my own records, I had this idea of drowning out the singer and putting the rest in the foreground. It was the background that interested me."
Idea
"I had a lot of trouble with engineers, because their whole background is learning from a functional point of view, and then learning how to perform that function."
Learning
"I thought it was magic to be able to catch something identically on tape and then be able to play around with it, run it backwards; I thought that was great for years."

"Stephen King in many respects is a wonderful writer. He has made a contribution. People in the future will be able to pick up Stephen King's books and learn a lot about who we were by reading those books."
