Work Quotes

It's the disease of thinking that a having a great idea is really 90% of the work. And if you just tell people, 'here's this great idea,' then of course they can go off and make it happen. The problem with that is that there's a tremendous amount of craftsmanship between a having a great idea and having a great product.

Adrian needs work. He can polish a lot of things up to become a better and better player, and he's aware of that. I think this can really help him.

After lengthy struggles I now find myself here Dr Kohnstamm's sanatorium in Königstein, in Taunus for a time to put my mind into some kind of order. It is a terribly difficult thing, of course, to be among strangers so much of the day. But perhaps I'll be able to see and create something new. For the time being, I would like more peace and absolute seclusion. Of course, I long more and more for my work and my studio. Theories may be all very well for keeping a spiritual balance, but they are grey and shadowy compared with work and life.

When we first started, we wanted our music videos to be a part of the whole story, but it was never something that we would think about during the writing of the song. It would always be just getting to work with young, ambitious directors and screenwriters that would want to try something out.

There is an art to grieving. To grieve well the loss of anyone or anything--a parent, a love, a child, an era, a home, a job--is a creative act. It takes attention and patience and courage. But many of us do not know how to grieve. We were never taught, and we don't see examples of full-bodied grieving around us. Our culture favors the fast-food model of mourning--get over it quick and get back to work; affix the bandage of "closure" and move on.
