What I really like is an intelligent review. It doesnt have to be positive. A review that has some kind of insight, and sometimes people say something thats startling or is so poignant. – Patti Smith
I came into music because I thought the presentation of poetry wasnt vibrant enough. So I merged improvised poetry with basic rock chords. – Patti Smith
The new artists coming through were very materialistic and Hollywood, not so engaged in communication. – Patti Smith
In art and dream may you proceed with abandon. In life may you proceed with balance and stealth. – Patti Smith
To me, the blues is an infection. I dont think its necessarily a melancholy thing the blues can be really positive and I think I think anyone and everyone can have a place for the blues. It need not always a woeful, sorrowful thing. Its more reflective it reminds you to feel. – Mick Fleetwood
What I like about sceptics is that in good science you need critics that make you think: Crumbs, have I made a mistake here? If you dont have that continuously, you really are up the creek. The good sceptics have done a good service, but some of the mad ones I think have not done anyone any favours. – James Lovelock
