- Fear has at least two layers: the fear of a certain thing and a fear of that fear. The first fear is difficult to do much about in the instant that it occurs, but the second one can be dealt with. Most people get nervous if they have to speak publicly. I do. But if you realize that you will be nervous, and then notice that, yes, you are nervous, it releases you in a small but important way. You're not overwhelmed, and so can keep a clear head and make choices.

- It's a shame how little our culture supports self-knowledge and the discovery of real beauty. Unfortunately, it's almost all about money. Where, but in a few stories, songs, paintings is it expressed that life itself is wonderful?
- Music is a deep kind of fun, like dancing. Molecular enjoyment. I always have a joy hangover the next day.
