- [on "Dragnet"] Even though it was the arse-end of punk, it wasn't the done thing for a studio to release something that sounded so willfully alien to everything else. In their minds this meant sabotaging future projects with the likes of fucking Marillion.
- I used to be psychic, but I drank my way out of it.
- The thing with me, I can't talk about my work. I find it very difficult.
- They're weird aren't they, Prince fans?
- The only good Philip K. Dick film is Total Recall (1990). It's faithful to the book. Arnie gets it.
- I do feel like an outsider, but I don't lose any sleep over it.
- I was really into Gary Glitter, and I used to get bad mouthed for it. It was like "You've got to be into David Bowie or Yes - Gary Glitter's just tripe". And I was going "It's fuckin' great. It's avant-garde". Well, two drummers and all that - it was really percussive. It was the only decent thing around.
- Being in The Fall isn't like being in another group. It isn't a holiday. A lot of musicians are really hard to deal with. They aren't as smart as me.
- [on James Blunt] There was always privilege in music, it was always like that, but nowadays you don't have a chance in hell. Why Blunt would talk about it I don't know but that's what I'm saying. He's looked at them cutting the army back, he's in a tank and he's gone to Daddy, "What shall I do?" In the past it would have been "stick at it", now his Dad is telling him to be a jazz singer. Imagine him as a tank commander, I'd shit myself.
- Blue cheese contains natural amphetamines. Why are students not informed about this?
- I think that the Kaiser Chiefs and Arctic Monkeys should open a chain of chip shops in North Yorkshire.
- If it's me and yer granny on bongos, it's The Fall.
