“Learn to love solitude - to be more alone with yourselves. The problem with young people is their carrying out noisy and aggressive actions not to feel lonely - and this is a sad thing - the individual must learn to be on his own as a child - for this doesn’t mean to be alone: it means not get bored with oneself which is a very dangerous symptom, almost a disease.”
— Andrei Tarkovsky (via datny)
“His (Barbet Schroeder’s) feeling about music for movies was, in those days, that he didn’t want a soundtrack to go behind the movie. All he wanted was, literally, if the radio was switched on in the car, for example, he wanted something to come out of the car. Or someone goes and switches the TV on, or whatever it is. He wanted the soundtrack to relate exactly to what was happening in the movie, rather than a film score backing the visuals.”
—Roger Waters (1943 - )

“I’ve been working on some design stuff, some architecture stuff, some coffee stuff. I want to be better at cooking. I want to learn how to make an automatic watch— you know, like little watches that have lots of moving springs, I’d love to know more about how they’re made and see if I can make one, just one. I’m trying to learn as much as I can about things I don’t know anything about for the next few years.”
—James Murphy speaks on his life post-LCD Soundsystem. (He’s been in the studio with Yeah Yeah Yeahs, too.)
