Quote by Camilla Raines

“I was worried they weren't going to let us in." Gabriel's gaze flitted down to Miles's faded band T-shirt. "Yes, perhaps I should have warned you to dress ... not in your usual style." Ouch. He smoothed down the front of his shirt defensively - it had been a gift from his dad after Miles found his collection of old records in the garage. "Don't diss Led Zeppelin, or you'll be hitchhiking home." "I have no problem with the band. It's your shirt that needs to be thrown out." "There's no way you're a fan of Led Zeppelin." "Of course, I am - they're one of the most influential bands of their time. I make a point to educate myself on the popular artists of all generations. And I find their originality very ... refreshing." Miles couldn't believe what he was hearing. He had to be in a confusing, backward reality where Gabriel Hawthorne had good taste in music.”

“Human relations are also like learning to swim… one begins in fear, keeps thrashing against something that feels infinite, gets panicked. And when you calm yourself down and stop resisting… surrendering to the symphony of it… it is only then when you start to stay afloat.”

“Techno-music is the voice of the machine, triumphing over the human utterance and cancelling its pre-eminent claim to our attention. In such music we encounter the background noise of modern life, but suddenly projected into the foreground, so as to fill all the auditory space. However much you listen to this music, you will never hear it as you hear the human voice; not even when it sounds so loudly that you can hear nothing else. You are overhearing the machine, as it discourses in the moral void.”
