Bjork

Most people in Iceland are blonde and blue-eyed. I was nicknamed 'China girl' in school 'cos they thought I looked Asian.

People are always asking me about eskimos, but there are no eskimos in Iceland.

But I'm not interested in politics. I lose interest the microsecond it ceases to be emotional, when something becomes a political movement. What I'm interested in is emotions.

For a while, I became an atheist; now that I'm grown up, though, I'm not hard-edged enough to be an atheist. Even though I live with a flaming atheist, I love going to temple. I love all the rituals.

As a young child my attention span was, as I remember it, rather short.

Exhaust the little moment. Soon it dies. And be it gash or gold it will not come Again in this identical guise.
