“There's a marvelous peace in not publishing, there's a stillness. When you publish, the world thinks you owe something. If you don't publish, they don't know what you're doing. You can keep it for yourself.”
“Live never to be ashamed if anything you do or say is published around the world -- even if what is published is not true.”
“You still have a lot of time to make yourself be what you want. There's still lots of good in the world. Tell Dally. I don't think he knows.”

“You think publishing is tough but the music world is ten times tougher.”
