Brainy Quotes site with Eldritch quotes

This is a strange website full of quotes from “famous” people, including our very own Uncle Andy.
https://www.brainyquote.com/authors/and ... tch-quotes
Has a stack of Eldritch sound bites and quotes on. The site doesn’t state the source of each quote (when viewed on mobile anyway) but they seem to come from a variety of interviews from over the years. L
Would have been nice to have a source for each one listed, but it still makes for some entertaining and amusing reading, and it’s good to be reminded that Von could be too smart for his own good sometimes

I don't want people to come and see our gig because of the magnificent things I'm doing with my hips, but it's their evening, you know. They have to have fun. I'm a little bit naive.

Oooh.
The citizen is becoming a pawn in a game where nobody knows the rules, where everybody consequently doubts that there are rules at all, and where the vocabulary has been diminished to such an extent that nobody is even sure what the game is all about.

Yeah. One of our members (who isn’t very active) has that as his sig.

Page can be plenty more full, and they don't even have any good stage banter quotes. I love his utter contempt for the UK music press (well deserved).

Paraphrasing, but he said something along the lines of "wouldn't it be nice to have a government that obviated the need for charity" sometime around the 93 charity gig. Always stuck with me, that one...

I wonder how many of the site's visitors knew who that oddly named Eldritch cove was in the first place. Not many folk venture down this rabbit hole and we, the converted, often forget that.

Thanks, there are very wise and intelligent quotes of many people on this site. But it´s ugly to see the "find on amazon" advertisements between such deep thoughts.

I don't see them. Fortunately. Always reject all unnecessary cookies, maybe that's why. Or the ad blockers, I've installed...

Ad blockers. I have the same. Just see empty spaces instead. Didn’t even realise that site had ads.
