It is sort of boring to stay in the same spot. You know, I didn't set out to become the first to do this, the first to do that. It was just that my interests were so diversified.

I'm lucky - I can do two things at once.

When I first came to New York, I would scream like a girl and run to the other side of the street if there was a pigeon. Now I can face off with a pigeon.

In New York, you have the street; in the U.K., we have the beach. I end up being like a migrating bird, being attracted to it.

One of the difficulties in living the lifestyle I lead is that it is hard to get my friends in one place.

In physics, to be in two places at the same time would be a miracle; in politics it seems not merely normal, but natural.

You have to accept the fact that sometimes you are the pigeon, and sometimes you are the statue.

I want to be in places I've never been before.

In the same way, there is some creature gnawing away inside of me, urging me to do things in different ways.

You can't separate the people from the places - although I sometimes like traveling in places where there are no people.
