“I don't enquire after your Affairs-- --so whatever happens, I wash my hands on't---- It hath always been my Maxim, that one Friend should assist another-- --But if you please----I'll take one of the Scarfs home with me. 'Tis always good to have something in Hand.”

And there's always someone on hand
To hate me for standing there.

And every time I do, I offend someone, somewhere.”

“I believe – as many scientists – that excessive hygienisation of life is responsible for the development of allergies. We avoid contact with microorganisms, our children live in almost sterile conditions, we wash our hands every now and then. Our immune system hardly comes into contact with bacteria, but it is still in contact with other antigens. So, if the organism gets bored, then these other antigens, completely harmless – a protein of milk, fish, or even strawberries – start to be treated as enemies.”

“Every winter I am here sometimes for two or four months. These are my roots, this is where I feel I must come to grow and learn as an artist. I must always come back to the guru to learn and grow more as a musician. There is no question of going anywhere and forgetting where I came from because that would be like losing my identity.”
