Q. How is it with the world, and we have lives conventional? The people who work in offices, we go to super Saturday, that kind of stuff…
A. What I understand, how I’m not going to understand. To me, the routine I’d be crushed, but I know that there are people who would be crushed in the insecurity that is my life. Eye: I work a lot. Today I got up at seven, and I haven’t stopped. If you are lazy don’t put the rock ‘ n ‘ roll.
Q. Do you Have around you dear people who take lives boring?
A. yes. My two sisters, my brother, are well. One is official, the other is a psychologist…And many friends, also and as well. They are comfortable. Perhaps this is the danger: the comfort is a drug that makes life less worth living. In contrast, the dissatisfaction made possible the culture, led us to the North Pole and launch us to the stars.
Q. But surely there have been moments of thinking ‘Oh, George, why don’t I searched for a opposition sencillita in Oviedo?’.

P. it Is supposed that Spain was a country of jokers where people relativizaba.
A. That ended in the 80’s, when it began to curdle a hedonistic vision, a letting go and not fight. That was to kill ourselves.
Q. Many prohibicionismos are directed to the late noble and they put us in a moral dilemma.
A. I, more than moral, he would speak of morality. This we have already lived, I am reminded of the hippies. Although the bad were not the hippies, but the hippiosos, that became a people, frankly, dogmatic.
