I'm not very good at being domesticated. I've tried. The domestic life I find claustrophobic - the rituals and habits and patterns.

I tried to play rugby but was never very good.

I couldn't get as big as a bodybuilder. I tried to put on as much weight in the right places as I could. My weightlifting was impressive for me, but not for some of the guys I see down at the gym.

There is a humanitarian impulse that one aspires to and there are days when one doesn't do it very well.

Little moments can have a feeling and a texture that is very real.

I'm very claustrophobic.
