The suffering or the bad memories are as important as the good memories, and the good experiences. If you sort of... can imagine life as being ninety nine percent of the time quite linear most of the time you're in a state of neither happiness nor sadness. And then that 1% of the time you experience moments of very crystalised happiness or crystalised sadness, or loneliness or depression. And I believe all of those moments are very pertinent. It's like I said to you, that for me it's mostly those crystalised moments of melancholy which are more inspirational to me. nd in a strange way they become quite beautiful in their on way. Music that is sad, melancholic, depressing, is in a kind of perverse way more uplifting I find happy music extremely depressing mostly, mostly quite depressing. It's particularly this happy music that has no spirituality behind it it's just mindless party music it'd be quite depressing, you know. But largely speaking, I was the kind of person that responds more to melancholia, and it makes me feel good And I think the reason for this is I think if you respond strongly to that kind of art it's because in a way it makes you feel like you're not alone. it makes us feel like we're not alone. So when we hear a very sad song, it makes us realise that we do share this kind of common human experience, and we're all kind of bonded in sadness and... melancholia and depression. Especifically I like Especificaly I like the Victorian to the late nineteenth-century tradition of taking pictures of the dead almost as if you can preserve their souls somehow in the celluloid or whatever it's made of... but also the fact that those pictures are so beautiful they were actually pieces of art. It wasn't as like some cheesy B movie horror image, it was something quite beautiful and peaceful and in fact when you look at those pictures the first time, you don't realize that the babys were dead at all, the children were dead you just thought that they were kind of in repose or in sleep but you knew something was not right and when you look closely you realize what it was... And that's one of the things that scares me about having children... just the thought that you may lose them... and how you cope with that, do you ever recover from that? And it's not easy enough to have kids at all... you know? some of these are so human, aren't they? like this one...
