Quote

Night is certainly more novel and less profane than day.

I actually prefer night shoots to days. I prefer being up. It's easier for me. I'm more of a night person.

I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day.

I prefer the night to the day and always stay up very late. Darkness is more peaceful, and I don't like sunshine - it hurts my eyes. When I used to live in more communal circumstances, I had to wait until everyone had gone to bed before I had the peace to write, and I still find I can get on with my writing much better at night.

I may play the same songs night to night, but I never play them the same way.

The old idea of a composer suddenly having a terrific idea and sitting up all night to write it is nonsense. Nighttime is for sleeping.

When you like something, you should do it all night long.

For me, there is no day or night for music. I often work through the night - without phone calls disturbing me.

I'm always amazed by the people who work on stage who sing night after night, day after day, week in week out.
