"There are people that love music. There are even those that work in the music business and still love the music for what it is…They respect it… maybe because they have been musicians themselves, or just because they respect it as a form of art. But there are a lot of people, probably 99 percent of the people that live off the music business, don’t love music. They despise it, and they despise the musicians … So that the only thing that interests them is the money."
