One of the reasons I'm on tour is to meet people. I consider it a reconnaissance. You know, I consider myself like in a military operation. I don't feel like a citizen.
My two great heroes are W. B. Yeats and Federico GarcΓa Lorca.
The older I get, the surer I am that I'm not running the show.
I was born in a suit.
I am an old scholar, better-looking now than when I was young. That's what sitting on your ass does to your face.
I was 15 when I first became deeply touched by the rhythm and structure of words.
