"Artists work in the dark-- and without artists, society would enter the future blind. "I accept chaos. I am not sure whether it accepts me," as Bob Dylan once put it; the bests artists trust that instinct. Especially in a time of chaos-- when so many are insisting that what one might feel as chaos is still order-- artists can explore, track and map the wilderness of uncertainty and doubt that ordinary political speech means to deny."
"Not Singing Too Fast," Interview February 2002
