The least movement is of importance to all nature. The entire ocean is affected by a pebble.

It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to the feeling for the things themselves for reality is more important than the feeling for pictures.

I'm concentrating on staying healthy having peace being happy remembering what is important taking in nature and animals spending time reading trying to understand the universe where science and the spiritual meet.

I believe 100 percent in the power and importance of music.

I genuinely don't feel that anything that's been written or said about me has overshadowed my music and that's the most important thing as far as I'm concerned.

Music is hugely important to me.

Country music is important to me and I love it but it's not my whole life.

I think it's important for people who love music to retain physical CDs or even vinyl because it sounds so great and so much warmer than music over the internet.

People always try to find my agenda but I don't really have one. It's safe to say that I make pop but I think that I'm doing important music too. I've just always done what I wanted to do.

The lyrics are constructed as empirically as the music. I don't set out to say anything very important.

For me the visual is just as important as the music.

Musicians are there in front of you and the spectators sense their tension which is not the case when you're listening to a record. Your attention is more relaxed. The emotional aspect is more important in live music.

I don't profess to have music as my big wheel and there are a number of other things as important to me apart from music. Theatre and mime for instance.

I think the most important thing about music is the sense of escape.

Music was important. Football was the easy part.

But I feel music has a very important role in ritual activity and that being able to join in musical activity along with dancing could have been necessary at a very early stage of human culture.

For the introduction of a new kind of music must be shunned as imperiling the whole state since styles of music are never disturbed without affecting the most important political institutions.

Although I am basically self taught I consider Debussy my teacher - the most important elements are colour light and shadow.

I often begin movies with music in my head it's a very important dimension to me. Not just the music itself but how to use music in film: when and how and subtlety. I don't like to be too sweet in my stories and I like the abrasive clang the contrasting of sounds and cultures.

I don't know what has happened to movies but lately every movie is at least 20 minutes too long. It used to be that if you were three hours long it was because it was epic - a movie about Gandhi something with very important subject matters.

You know my movies are important on an economic basis on an artistic basis.

My movies are important on an economic basis on an artistic basis.

Where I live nobody who's fourteen is having sex and doing major drugs. And I think if you see it in the movies you may be influenced by it. I think it's so important to preserve your innocence.

The movies I watch and the music I listen to and the books I read - those are important to me. It's very important to me and I don't know what I would do without those things.
