Marjane Satrapi
Iranian Artist
It is dangerous when you start calling people from one part of the world terrorists or fanatic, and you reduce them to some abstract notion. If evil has a geographical place, and if the evil has a name, that is the beginning of fascism. Real life is not this way. You have fanatics and narrow-minded people everywhere.

Laura Marling
English Musician

The world is getting so small, and mass production is getting so big. Everything is in danger of becoming the same.

Robert Smith
English Musician

As you grow older, inevitably you develop a life outside the band. I think it would be tragic if you didn't.
