...you have to pass an exam, and the jobs that you get are either to shine shoes, or to herd cows, or to tend pigs. thank god, i don't want any of that! damn it! and besides that they smack you for a reward; they call you an animal and it's not true, a little kid, etc.. oh! damn damn damn damn damn!

Damn the great executives, the men of measured merriment, damn the men with careful smiles, damn the men that run the shops, oh, damn their measured merriment.

Another way of working is setting deliberate constraints that aren't musical ones - like saying, "well, this piece is going to be three minutes and nineteen seconds long and it's going to have changes here, here and here, and there's going to be a convolution of events here, and there's going to be a very fast rhythm here with a very slow moving part over the top of it." those are the sort of visual ideas that i can draw out on graph paper. i've done a lot of film music this way.

When the last sea is sailed and last shallow charted, when the last field is reaped and the last harvest stored, when the last fire is out and the last guest departed grant the last prayer that i pray, be good to me, o lord.

In the early days, porter wagoner would not exactly scold me, but he's say, 'you're writing too many damn verses. you're makin' these songs too damn long.' and i'd say, 'yeah, but i'm tellin' a story. i have a story to tell.' and he'd say, 'well, you're not going to get it on the radio.' if i start writing a song, i'm writing it for a reason. people would say that i had to have two verses, and a chorus, and a bridge. i tried to learn that formula.

I like the idea of reincarnation. i'm not a true believer, but i think the idea is beautiful, that life just doesn't stop. for soulmates, it's the term that i'm a little bit skeptical of. as soon as you put a label on something, it seems like that's it, you're done. obviously i believe in love and making it last forever, but what's beautiful about that is you don't know if it's going to last forever. when you don't know that this is it, you, i think, enjoy it more.

I wanted to be a journalist, i thought it was glamorous and that i'd meet beautiful women in the rain.

A glass pitcher, a wicker basket, a tunic of coarse cloth. their beauty is inseparable from their function. handicrafts belong to a world existing before the separation of the useful and the beautiful.

Sculpture is an art of the open air... i would rather have a piece of my sculpture put in a landscape, almost any landscape, than in, or on, the most beautiful building i know.
