One of the things I like about performing on the stage is that it is a kind of meditative experience. Time does stand still. You have no concept or feeling of the passing of two or three hours’ time.

When you’re on camera, even though you try to lose yourself in the character, you are aware that there is a camera there capturing every moment of it visually.

The way Fatboy Slim layers motifs is the same as 18th-century baroque counterpoint.

I’m really into Kruder and Dorfmeister at the moment, and they do the same thing. – Charles Hazlewood

Exploring is an innate part of being human. We’re all explorers when we’re born. Unfortunately, it seems to get drummed out of many of us as we get older, but it’s there, I think, in all of us. And for me that moment of discovery is just so thrilling, on any level, that I think anybody that’s experienced it is pretty quickly addicted to it. – Edith Widder
I’ve been really aware of how important it is to me to just stay in the moment and enjoy it while it lasts. Because that’s all you’ve got. If it ends, I’ll move on to doing something else. If it lasts, great. – Marketa Irglova
