A Lot Of 18-year-olds Are Like Old

I Think A Lot Of Good Directors Listen To Music While They're Working. The Songs Just Don't Become A Part Of The Film. They're Replaced.

Why Would I Want To Sound Like Joni Mitchell? I've Got Joni Mitchell Records, And They're Great, And I Couldn't Possibly Be That Good.

I Drink A Lot, Probably Too Much. My Scene While Writing Lyrics Is Always A Bottle Of Scotch And Stacks Of Note Cards, Pencil And Pencil Sharpener. I Throw Around Note Cards And Drink.

I'm Definitely An Anomaly, But I'm Making Things. They're Selling, Say, Martinis, And I'm Kind Of Making Vintage Riesling. People Aren't Going To Sit There Very Often, Not Your Average Public, And Your Average Music-business Monster Is Not Going To Take The Time To Notice The Overtones And The Undertones Inside The Flavor. They'd Rather Just Have The Martini.

Being Capable Of Anything Is A Bullshit Concept, Unless It Means You Also Admit That You're Capable Of Cheating, Lying And Killing.
