We are all part of a tradition, at least we depend on the past.

Most of today's music is done electronically.

How did this or that change my music? The only time I have to think about it is when an interviewer asks me that.

As everyone else, I was a fan of Pink Floyd in the sixties.

We are all part of a tradition, at least we depend on the past.

Yes, I was invited to make the sound environment at a booth of a huge electronic company, during the Hanover Industrial Fair in 1973. It was a job. Slightly good paid. But not as much as my producer then told the press.

When I came back I had to realize that IC was not in a very good shape - all the much money that we had because of the huge Ideal success, was gone. I was very upset.

Everything changes permantly. How boring if it wouldn't.

I did not start IC and Inteam to have control over my music. I had control before and after.

Sometimes I like to make music together with a singer or with singers.

Because, also the world of showbiz is not just black and white, good and bad.

Manuel is still today a good friend. The others I see rarely, but with Edgar I phone from time to time.

As always in a musical collaboration: One has to like each other. As simple as that.

I listened to the rock music of that time, but as you know and can easily hear: my music of that era had nothing to do with the common music of this era. I was experimenting, I was searching for something new.

The human voice is the first and most natural musical instrument, also the most emotional.

And of course, the musician - if he's serious - always answers: My last album is my best, otherwise I wouldn't have done it.

Every music - except dance music, which is for dancing, I suppose - is for the spirit of the human being, and not for the body.

Yes, I'm a musician. I also like to play with others, sometimes more, sometimes less.

Yes, sampling has changed not just my way of playing and composing.

I had to realize that the use of samples has its rules, too.

I never had many problems to do my music and to give it to a record company. Rarely do they try to argue with me about my music, probably because it's still too far-out.

My interest in his new toy, the Theremin, isn't very big. It simply does not fit into my way of playing music. I do not want to fiddle around with my hands in the air.

The problem was the journalists who also did not understand much of my music, but they wrote about it. I think you fell into the usual trap laid out by parts of the press and other writers: that the poor musician has always to fight the evil companies and managers.

Then, in 1983 I went on a very long concert tour all over Europe.

A concert is a concert is a concert is a concert. An album is an album is an album is an album. Musically, both have nothing in common.

A concert is a concert is a concert is a concert. An album is an album is an album is an album. Musically both have nothing in common.

We are all part of a tradition at least we depend on the past.

The present contains nothing more than the past, and what is found in the effect was already in the cause.

Although Alchemy has now fallen into contempt, and is even considered a thing of the past, the physicain should not be influenced by such judgements.

I do like to drive fast and I have gotten pulled over in the past. I use my skills to get out of tickets.

You learn from a conglomeration of the incredible past - whatever experience gotten in any way whatsoever.

The best prophet of the future is the past.

Some of the best lessons we ever learn are learned from past mistakes. The error of the past is the wisdom and success of the future.

Philosophy finds it an easy matter to vanquish past and future evils, but the present are commonly too hard for it.

Historians tell the story of the past, novelists the story of the present.

You can also make explicit certain social problems which, again, would be prejudged or not encountered at all in real life, because people have set up defenses against it. Fantasy allows you to get past defenses.

America is false to the past, false to the present, and solemnly binds herself to be false to the future.

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.

Terrorism, ladies and gentlemen, in my eyes I have a very, very, very simple explanation. Gangs of criminals, killers, used unfortunately by certain governments in the past for political purposes, who are on their own now as gangs.

In the past 3-4 years I've developed a habit of keeping numerous small cassette recorders in my house and in a bag with me so that I'm able to commit to tape memory song ideas on a constant basis.

By this time it was past six, and the enemy's van and ours were at too great a distance to engage, I perceived some of their ships stretching to the northward; and I imagined they were going to form a new line.

Firms would be given initial entitlements to gross markup on the basis of past performance. These entitlements would be transferable and a market in them would be developed.

I mean that at least 80% of the Russian people feel destitute. It's the people who had their past and future taken from them - they don't get paid - many of them face a wall. They have nowhere to go.

They spend their time looking forward to the past.

Like most of those who study history, he (Napoleon III) learned from the mistakes of the past how to make new ones.

It also allows you to look as though you're not particularly from the present, future or past, either.

The steady expansion of welfare programs can be taken as a measure of the steady disintegration of the Negro family structure over the past generation in the United States.

Yes, romance has found it's way into my heart in the past.

Countries under foreign command quickly forget their history, their past, their tradition, their national symbols, their way of living, often their own literary language.
