Years Ago Quotes

I fell in love with electronics, which for me was the terra incognita, because I had never heard such sounds. If you’d asked me 50 years ago, I would have said the future of music is only electronic, but I would have been wrong. I learnt how to produce everything I needed with live instrumentalists, so I don’t need electronics Picture Quote #1

Two years ago, if anyone had told me I’d be doing half the stuff I’m doing, I wouldn’t have believed it Picture Quote #1

When I started writing this blog more than years ago, it was in response to traditional media’s habit of twisting interviews to fit the headlines they wanted to create Picture Quote #1

Basically everything I’ve done in art, I was in possession of when I was 20 years old. I use a waste retrieval method of working. I’ll go back and use something that disgusted me 15 years ago but that I had enough sense to think about. Some artists change dramatically. I see my work more like history being written Picture Quote #1

I don’t know what kind of courage it took thousands of years ago, but I know how courageous women need to be today Picture Quote #1

I worked in script development, many years ago, and read a lot of scripts. Between that and the scripts I’ve read as an actor, and I’m a writer as well, I think I have a pretty good sense about whether the bones of a story are there and whether the structure is intact Picture Quote #1

I think we all look for clues that we are not utterly alone... Clues we find in literature and paintings and music and even someone’s eyes; clues that demonstrate that someone else has felt the same indescribable feelings, seen the same things or passed by the spot even if it was by candlelight three hundred years ago. It means everything, like finding footprints in the sand of a deserted island Picture Quote #1

To me, writing is remembering something funny that happened, or maybe something I said seven years ago Picture Quote #1

Trying to write music that’s sensitive to 400 years ago takes a bit of madness, as it’s such a long stretch of time Picture Quote #1

What has changed in 40 years? It’s very simple: 40 years ago there was a market economy. Today there is a market society – today everything, including ethics, has a price Picture Quote #1

There are moments as a teacher when I’m conscious that I’m trotting out the same exact phrase my professor used with me years ago. It’s an eerie feeling, as if my old mentor is not just in the room, but in my shoes, using me as his mouthpiece Picture Quote #1

There’s no such thing as old age. I’m no different now than I was 50 years ago. I’m just having more fun Picture Quote #1

I see myself as most people see themselves, you have good days and bad days. I don’t think I’m better looking now than I did three years ago Picture Quote #1

It has become very difficult for anyone to argue that observed global warming is natural variability. We have good reason for being able to say that the world will be warmer by about a quarter of a degree in the next decade. It’s the same reason we had 10 years ago when we said that the 1990s would be warmer than the 1980s: The planet is out of equilibrium Picture Quote #1

I’ve done so many interviews that I’ve gotten past the ego and the personality. I used to feel that there might be something missing, but a few years ago I realized that I was so causative over how the interview went that I was no longer concerned over the effects of the interview Picture Quote #1

It was far too cold. The second I got out I had this incredible headache, I’m just not used to it. The last time I saw snow was years and years ago Picture Quote #1

You think you’re developing and getting better and then you see something you did years ago. Looking at your early work.. sometimes it has a depth that surprises you Picture Quote #1

I’ve always wanted to serve my country in some capacity. But many years ago, my father said he wanted me to run the brewery and he’d do politics Picture Quote #1

After realising my natural affinity towards surrealism several years ago I decided to study it’s origins and definitions Picture Quote #1

Taste for things of the past evolves, doesn’t it? What was a masterpiece a hundred years ago is no longer so today Picture Quote #1

Italy is still very much the same place it was 2,000 years ago. Italians are still the same.. there’s a sense of beauty and a sense of dignity and a sense of living life to the full that infects everyone Picture Quote #1

Though I lost you years ago, I dreamed you were here. That dream gave me the inspirational feeling that I could make it one more day Picture Quote #1

My mom always wanted me to be an actor. And I started going to theater and going on auditions young. I only realized about five years ago that I actually didn’t want to be an actor Picture Quote #1

A few years ago, when I had no work and started believing that films weren’t a viable career, I thought of finding another job. I started training and riding horses and got consumed by that. It was a boon in disguise Picture Quote #1

What you believe someone else can or can’t do hasn’t got beans with the doing. Or lack of doing. Just go back through your history books and you’ll discover that just about everything you take for granted today in your daily lives was absolutely impossible not so many years ago Picture Quote #1

I will make an attempt to attain freedom, the youthful soul says to itself; and is it to be hindered in this by the fact that two nations happen to hate and fight one another, or that two continents are separated by an ocean, or that all around it a religion is taught with did not yet exist a couple of thousand years ago. All that is not you, it says to itself. No one can construct for you the bridge upon which precisely you must cross the stream of life, no one but you yourself alone Picture Quote #1

You’re always looking at last year, or 10 years ago, or your school days, or your teenage years, your formative years. Because that’s exactly what they are, they’re your formative years Picture Quote #1

I think the future for young chefs is much brighter than it was 40 years ago. Because people have become so much more interested in food. That will not stop. We cannot go back now. We cannot go back to frozen Picture Quote #1

I had a hip replacement a couple of years ago. I have a song about that. And why wouldn’t you? It strikes me that that was a huge event. It’s kind of funny and horrible and interesting, so why wouldn’t one write about that? Picture Quote #1

When the new country came out ten to 15 years ago, people my age were almost too old. But it never stopped me. I never stopped writing. I never stopped recording Picture Quote #1
