• I haven't been walking around for years with some burning desire to do a solo record. If I had, maybe I'd have made a record that was experimental.

• Come not, when I am dead, To drop thy foolish tears upon my grave, To trample round my fallen head, And vex the unhappy dust thou wouldst not save. There let the wind sweep and the plover cry; But thou, go by.

Pass on, weak heart, and leave me where I lie: Go by, go by.
