“I think that’s the reason we’re such good friends, because we remember each other from when we were kids. Things that happened when we were kids that no one else knows about but us. It’s in our heads. That’s how we know they really happened.”

“A 10-minute walk from the sea, up several flights of steps and through winding alleys, the three-storey whitewashed home is now used by [Leonard Cohen’s] children. Cohen hadn’t visited for 15-odd years but his son, Adam Cohen, recently recorded his own album here. It’s empty at the moment, while a young couple who came to pay their respects are sitting on a low wall next to it, reading his poetry aloud.

He had a rare, enormous gift of concentration. In art, in general, concentration is a very serious thing. True concentration…when your comprehension is very deep. Very few people can do it. Only great artists.

A minute of silence can last a long time… a whole eternity.
