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.

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.

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.

I also do not like the idea of soft money, these issue ads - people don't know where the money is coming from, millions and millions of dollars outside of the control of a candidate - there's no accountability.

Stories come from other shows at other studios where only 2,000 rounds were actually used and the money for the other 3,000 went right into the studio pockets. Corners were cut and that production suffered. Knock wood, that hasn't happened to us.

Never play anything that don't sound right. You might not make any money, but at least you won't get hostile with yourself.

Don't make music for some vast, unseen audience or market or ratings share or even for something as tangible as money. Though it's crucial to make a living, that shouldn't be your inspiration. Do it for yourself.

When I sent those scripts, that was the lowest point of my life. We'd just had our second son, and when I went to collect them from hospital, I went to the bank to try and get some money to buy some diapers, the screen showed I've got $26 left.

One does not need buildings, money, power, or status to practice the Art of Peace. Heaven is right where you are standing, and that is the place to train.

I would rather take the role and work and make my own money and self respect than to have sex with someone who has a lot of money.

People may take a job for more money, but they often leave it for more recognition.

I make no claim to being a business genius. You can make so much money in this business that it loses its value.

It costs a great deal of money to do a musical, and the more money involved, the more big business influences the artform.

The world over, give a guy money and it goes to drinking, gambling, and women. When you give a woman money, it goes to feeding, clothing, helping people.

Your team has to understand that coming into the ABA, you have to have your investments right and sponsorships and people ready to give you money so they can back you up.

I wanted to be an actress. In college I was a serious feminist and very political. I was determined to get one thing out of my career and that was respect. I didn't want money. I didn't care about fame.

A drunkard would not give money to sober people. He said they would only eat it, and buy clothes and send their children to school with it.

If you're a producer, you always spend too much money because you want that shot - and you're willing to spend a bundle to get it.

We are demonstrating for services for all the people and not just services for money. It's very important that this message goes to the European Parliament today.

I write plays not to make money, but to stop myself from going mad. Because it's my way of making the world rational to me.

It's important not to limit the amount of their own money that candidates can spend, but to give other people access to enough money to run competitive races.

The rule is not to talk about money with people who have much more or much less than you.

It's about the power of design and the power of the human spirit. It's above paying anybody to do something stupid for money like reality television does - like ambushing people.

Today, they're just up there for the money, just packaged and be gone.

The unions claim the deck is stacked against them when it comes to labor laws, but the truth is many private and public sector workers are forced to pay union dues as a condition of their employment, yet they have little say in how the unions spend their money.
