It Is A Sure Sign That A Culture Has Reached A Dead End When It Is No Longer Intrigued By Its Myths.

I Had Tremendous Fun Fooling Around With The Way People Talked About Songs, Just The Way That Became Another Way Of Understanding The World.

Hearing Things Like 'wake Up' By Lora Logic, Or The Raincoats' 'in Love' - That Was Something I Wasn't Prepared For. I Couldn't Hear Anything That Came Before It In The Music, And I Didn't Want To. I Was Absolutely In Love With Its Out-of-nowhereness.

I Learned That When Something Just Has To Be Said To Move The Discussion Along, Or Broaden It Or Deepen It, If I Can Just Keep My Mouth Shut For Five Minutes A Student Will Say It. So For Me A Lot Of Teaching Is About Keeping My Mouth Shut.

Think About How Rare It Is For Anyone To Encounter A Teacher Who Can Open You Up To The Notion That There Is An Infinite Amount Of Meaning And Possibility And Inspiration In The Smallest Thing Before You.
