Quote

When you're doing well and you're successful, part of being successful is that you get interviewed. But it ruins the moment.

I've been giving interviews for the last 25 or 30 years, more often than not answering the same questions over and over again, ad nauseum.

It strikes me every time I do an interview that I don't really sit around thinking about my goals and my life and my career. I do what I love doing and I get a lot of feedback. I'm free as a bird, you know? If I do something good, it's, 'Wow, that was brilliant,' and if I do something bad, it just goes away.

You know, there's that temptation in interviews to make yourself sound - well, to give yourself a bit of mystery.

I've done so many interviews that I've gotten past the ego and the personality.

I don't pretend to be a great interviewer; I don't even pretend to be good at my job.

I learn something in the interviews from time to time.

Doing interviews can sometimes mess up my head. It makes me feel dirty. It's frustrating how the press recycles a quote to death.

One reason I quit doing interviews after years and years and years was because I was making things up.

When somebody wants to interview me, I've always got something to say.
