Interviewer: "(...) the recurring themes and motives in your work. Where do they come from and what part do they play?"
Frank Zappa: "The recurring themes are a device that is directly analogist to the process that Rembrandt used to use in his paintings (...) That process was if you want to make it look a certain way: add a little brown to every color. And you get that kind of life. And I add a little poodle wherever I come."
