I'm interested in trying to explore what I think is the truth at a given time in my life, and part of the process of being honest is - in my mind - talking about the idea that you're watching a movie.

History not used is nothing, for all intellectual life is action, like practical life, and if you don't use the stuff well, it might as well be dead. ↗

So basically, I think music at its best can be everything. It can be totally stupid and very intellectual and emotional at the same time. I don't think all those things shut each other out. ↗

The Prime Minister is head of team but its not a one woman act.aI've been called all those things. Intellectual, sharp-tongued, all true. But what New Zealander is like is to know that someone is in charge and in the end the buck stops with the Prime Minister. ↗
