Quotations
"In most of my music, theater pieces and films, I try to express a sense of timelessness; of time as a recurring cycle."
--Liner notes of the album Book of Days, ECM New Series (1990)
"I work in between the cracks, where the voice starts dancing, where the body starts singing, where theater becomes cinema."
--Deborah Jowitt (ed.), Meredith Monk (Johns Hopkins University Press, 1997)
"Björk did one of my songs, "Gotham Lullaby". I'd heard her sing that on an MP3 file one of my students gave me, and I found it really interesting. Then we met six months ago, and liked each other very much. She's a lovely spirit."
--Interview by Tony Montague in The Globe and Mail, November 11, 2005

Famous quotes containing the word quotations:
“A book that furnishes no quotations is, me judice, no bookit is a plaything.”
—Thomas Love Peacock (17851866)
“Reading any collection of a mans quotations is like eating the ingredients that go into a stew instead of cooking them together in the pot. You eat all the carrots, then all the potatoes, then the meat. You wont go away hungry, but its not quite satisfying. Only a biography, or autobiography, gives you the hot meal.”
—Christopher Buckley, U.S. author. A review of three books of quotations from Newt Gingrich. Newties Greatest Hits, The New York Times Book Review (March 12, 1995)
