Anyone ever hear of any of Mr. Thompson's influences outside of musicians? If there is no info on this, any speculation?

Anthropology, archaeology, architecture, art, astrology, astronomy and that's just some of the 'A's. Not trying to be funny. Could name some individuals but I think it's the themes that are the real influences.

i got the Lynch one from 'fool the world'

Thompson: If anything is a big influence on me, it's David Lynch. He's really into presenting something but not explaining it. It's just, "This is an image, this is an idea, isn't it cool?" The way I understand it, that's the only way to be surreal. To be not so connected with it, except that it came from my brain, somewhere way back here.

LIFE

What is that saying? Life imitates Art. or is it Art imitates Life? Anyway...Life is his inspiration for his music and Life contains everything you know. Love, all subjects beginning with an A, the Bible and anything else that has been mentioned and everything that hasn't.
