Being alone on the moors is scary; as the rain clouds settle in, it makes you realise your place in nature.

There's no point waking up in the morning feeling sorry for yourself.

We need balance. We need to balance our inner life with our outer life. Nature is always sitting there waiting to help us, but we have to do the work. Nature is probably the greatest teacher that we'll ever have... the earth and nature.

It's the easiest thing in the world to be down about anything. I think the body responds to good vibes.

When people get disillusioned and get insecure and content about the future, they tend to brood about what might have been.

I've always been ready to embrace what's around the corner because it might be just the thing that I need to help me grow.

Working with the Kinks, there always seemed to be some kind of automatic process at work. Ray and I had this telepathy happening for a long time, where one of us always knew what the other could do with something.

We've always had our hardcore fans. But the general public has a love-hate thing about the 'Kinks.' It always leaves people with a question mark on their heads.

I can't stand tribute bands. It's nice, bless 'em, but it's not right. They can't capture the right spirit. You never see a tribute comedian, a tribute Les Dawson.

I don't like people telling me what to do, or trying to MAKE me write songs.

As an individual, I think you have to find your own path. I like the simplicity and purity of Hinduism and many elements of Buddhism. These are all means of accessing spiritual energy.

Exmoor and Dartmoor are sacred, magical places. You find a truer side of yourself there.

I thought I'd use music to confront the problems that I faced, and it helped. I found a more healing mindset, and it did rejuvenate me.

Sometimes when you're with the same old people, you get the same old thing.

I always loved the guitar, from when I was quite little. My dad had a G banjo at the house that he played. When he had parties, my sisters always played piano, and my dad played banjo.

I was interested in psychic things and in spiritualism even as a boy. I'd started doing yoga by the early 1970s.

I think there's been a big problem between religion, or organized religion, and spirituality.

Dave Davies
Dave Davies

I think that what went wrong with religion is the same thing that went wrong with politics. Is that it became too money based and too controlling. It's just a weakness that we human beings have for control - we want one thing and then we want more and then we want more.

I was a big, big fan of Jimmy Burton. Anything with him on, I used to perk up and listen to it over and over and over again.

I'm very interested in science fiction, and I like new things. I've never been a really sentimental person.
