I'm actually a very lazy person. Most of the time, I'm happy to sit around and stare. Or watch bad TV soaps. It's quite rare for me to get inspired by anything, but it could be something small. A view of the Serpentine. A snatch of music. Or a little shred of conversation overheard on a bus, such as, 'You also will marry someone of my choice.'

I am certainly not allergic to causes - particularly on subjects such as religious intolerance.

I don't think anyone should be banned. If you don't like a book, set it aside.
