A fine interview by a well prepped interviewer whose intelligent probing questions stimulated Crisp to speak comfortably and concisely. Posterity's grateful.

Great interview Rian! Your questions were thought-provoking and you allowed Quentin to speak freely. Interviewing a legend at such a young age could not have been easy. You nailed it! Thanks for sharing this.

“But even if I lived in a palace I’d have to live alone, because when would I recharge my batteries?” Couldn’t have explained it better❤👌

A great man and a wonderful character. People like Crisp get it. There are no rules to life in the sense that there's some pattern people have to follow. Too many people spend their time doing what they think they're supposed to do not what they want to do. It's why so many people have the infamous "mid-life crisis".

Many talk or write about existentialism but few actually live it: Quentin Crisp is one of those few.

CRISP changed my life with this advice: " if you have a prominant physical feature that you cannot completely hide is automatically your trademark".
