Commentary Quotes
“When things get bad enough, then something happens to correct the course.”
The Open Mind interview (1985)
Context: When things get bad enough, then something happens to correct the course. And it's for that reason that I speak about evolution as an error-making and an error-correcting process. And if we can be ever so much better — ever so much slightly better — at error correcting than at error making, then we'll make it.

They're not gonna happen.”

Lyrics, In Rainbows (2007)
“There are plenty who regard a wall behind which something is happening as a very curious thing.”
