"Music is pure energy. Good music injects this energy directly into the listener's heart."

"Love, anger, hatred, grief or disgust - no matter what has to be conveyed should hit like a stroke."

"Everything with jagged edges counts - even if it is disgusting!"

"In movies the most important music is silence. To place a sound exactly at the right time, to break the noise and introduce silence can be the most compelling moment in film sound."
