I've been willing to go for years without publishing. That's been my career.

Ten years ago, in 94, we thought maybe nobody would ever care about Styx again.

30 years and 55 pictures - not more than five that were any good, or any good for me.

I've learned over a period of years there are setbacks when you come up against the immovable object; sometimes the object doesn't move.

I enjoyed playing around with that guy, and it was a pleasure every three, four years, coming back seeing how the wardrobe is. Is he heavy? Is he thin? I had fun.

Everyone has a childhood, everyone had awkward years and weird stages. Mine were broadcast for eight years.

I was 20 years old and felt I had a lot to offer, even to myself.

My brother's been producing rap music and hip-hop for maybe 10 years.

The second is that the role of China trade in Japanese economy, important as it is, has often been exaggerated, as proven by our experience of the past 6 years.

I grew up under Thatcher. I grew up believing that I was fundamentally powerless. Then gradually over the years it occurred to me that this was actually a very convenient myth for the state.

Well, I've been reading a lot about the fifty years since the Second World War, about Western foreign policy and all that. I try not to let it get to me, but sometimes I just think that there's no hope.

But that is a valid, continuing service that that music - which is, in some cases, 80 or 90 years old - is rendering. And proving its own timelessness.

In the past 3-4 years I've developed a habit of keeping numerous small cassette recorders in my house and in a bag with me so that I'm able to commit to tape memory song ideas on a constant basis.

For over ten years I always had, but I don't speak English.

I was a product of the times, the war, the occupation, the reoccupation, my 4 years in Britain, admiring but at the same time questioning whether they are able to do a better job than we can.
