The Moment You Know You

Am I Machiavellian? I Don't Think I'm Quite The Mastermind People Would Have Me Be. Everything I Do Tends To Be Very Successful And It May Have Something To Do With The Fact That I'm Very Good, Not Necessarily That I Manipulate. But That Doesn't Often Occur To People.

I Suspect That Dreams Are An Integral Part Of Existence, With Far More Use For Us Than We've Made Of Them...the Fine Line Between The Dream State And Reality Is At Times, For Me, Quite Grey.

I Thought That I Could Do Some Kind Of Vehicle Involving Rock Musicals And Presenting Rock And Characters And Storyline In A Completely Different Fashion.

The Only Real Failure Is Trying To Second-guess The Taste Of An Audience. Nothing Comes Out Of That Except A Kind Of Inward Humiliation.

It Was Like Treading Water All Through The '60s, And When 1970 Kicked In, I Thought "we're Here. Right." God, This Is Exciting. I'm Going To Go For It Now. I Really Felt It Was My Time. Then Marc Bolan Did It First. That Really Pissed Me Off.
