People have to wake up in time to change this profligate lifestyle which we enjoy ... I think we are in the midst of this period where we are committing this suicide on the planet and everybody is just using up all of our natural resources like a bunch of insane people. That’s what I worry about more than I worry about jazz. What I am more concerned about is whether our whole civilization will be around in the next 25 years.”
