"In the last decade you can count the number of Hollywood dramas that have revolved around women. The studios have forgotten that women are fascinating."

"At some point you’ve earned the right to be happy. It’s a challenge for all of us. Can you be happy for a whole day? Can you link two days together?"

Jimmy was a chameleon, protean by nature and by profession, with the power to assume different characters, become different creatures, in order to avoid capture. Only if caught and held would the Greek god Proteus confide the truth. Few ever caught and none ever held Jimmy.

"I’m sure there’s a couple records I’m leaving out before this one, like R.E.M.’s Murmur or Chronic Town. Those were the years when I was smoking pot, so there might be a few things lost to memory. But I definitely remember hearing ‘Teen Age Riot’ [the first song on Daydream Nation], and I was just in. Steve Shelley’s drumming had this momentum to it, and their approach to guitar—the way they created waves of sound and rhythm—I had never really heard that before. And the lyrics on the album felt like an adventure. I could relate to some stuff, but I also felt like I was looking in on something I hadn’t experienced yet. Same with the Ramones. To me, that’s what New York feels like. I was very intimidated by New York, and I still am."

"A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later."

"I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don’t intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises."

"I was quite advanced when I was at school, and when I left school it seemed that all these really oafish clods from school were making tremendous progress and had wonderfully large cars and lots of money, and I seemed to be constantly waiting for a bus that never came."

Morrissey, “Oxford Road Show”, BBC2 (March 1985)

"The first time I heard “How Soon Is Now” (by The Smiths), I can remember things changing in myself. It was 1984, in my friend’s apartment in this really horrible building in Hollywood. We were there eating some sort of horrible food, with ketchup ‘cause we didn’t have any money, and it came on the television. The video was great, but the song completely blew everything away. I’ve never heard of The Smiths before and it was like, whooosh, I went out and got Meat Is Murder. It was the first time I ever heard writing like that over music like that. It influenced me because the writing was so great, because Morrissey’s lyrics were so great in such a way, I don’t know, like just completely freaky, unique."
