England is so defined, the class system, your education. I think what was unique about the Canterbury scene.

Honestly, I just assume that whatever is going to happen to me is going to happen. There it goes: someone is there, someone isn't there. This girl is here. This food is here. I think the clever people are the ones who do a little as possible.

I think music all the time.

I think a book is your calling card, your business card.

I think there's a natural system in your own head about how much violence the scene warrants. It's not an intellectual process, it's an instinctive process.

All men are born free: just not for long.
