You know, there're no rules between Russell and I. We don't want to have to have to talk too much, because it's really precious, really special to play music. ↗

Music is pleasant not only because of the sound of many voices, but because of the silence that is in it. ↗

Any place, then, can become a cemetery. All it takes is your body. It's not fair, I think, and I get this petulant wish for ugly flowers and mourners, my mother's old familiar grief. Somebody I love to tend my future grave. Probably this is the wrong thing to be wishing for. ↗

Some care is needed in using Descartes' argument. "I think, therefore I am" says rather more than is strictly certain. It might seem as though we are quite sure of being the same person to-day as we were yesterday, and this is no doubt true in some sense. But the real Self is as hard to arrive at as the real table, and does not seem to have that absolute, convincing certainty that belongs to particular experiences. ↗

I'd like a pop-up magazine with 45 articles on Russell Crowe. I'm like a teenager. I'd have 'Teen Beat' if I could, for grown-ups. ↗

I'm challenged by people like Russell Crowe and Sean Penn who come in with such incredible discipline and power. ↗
