Sometimes The Silences, The Gaps, Tell Us

I Have Always Believed That The Material World Is Governed By Nonmaterial Sources, So That In That Sense 'english Music' Is An Exercise In The Spiritual As Well As The Material. I Have Always Been Attracted To The Gothic And Spiritual Imagination, And I've Always Been Interested In Visionaries.

I Strike Up Conversations All The Time And It Is Very Interesting, Finding Out About Things I Know Nothing About.

London Goes Beyond Any Boundary Or Convention.it Contains Every Wish Or Word Ever Spoken, Every Action Or Gesture Ever Made, Every Harsh Or Noble Statement Ever Expressed. It Is Illimitable. It Is Infinite London.

Oh, I Just Tend To Believe In Things When I'm Writing Them. For Instance, When I Was Writing 'doctor Dee,' I Believed In Magic. And When I Wrote 'hawksmoor' I Believed In Psychic Geography. But As Soon As I Type The Last Full Stop, I'm Back To Being A Complete Blank Again.

My Great Fear Has Always Been Complete And Utter Failure. Hence, You See, All The Dispossessed People In My Fiction, And Why I Try To Earn As Much Money As I Can. It's A Defense. I Don't Enjoy It Or Do Anything With It.
