"The move from scarcity thinking to abundance thinking, from zero-sum competition to one-hundred-sum collaboration, is not just a â€œniceâ€ or â€œmoralâ€ idea. In the twenty-first century, it's plain good sense. Scarcity says, â€œI'm going to keep all my ideas to myself and sell more than anyone else.â€ Abundance says, â€œBy mentoring, coaching, and sharing all our best ideas, we're going to create a powerful tide that raises all our ships-and we'll all sell more as a result."

On the one hand it's quite a sad record, but I wanted the songs in essence to be about pulling yourself out of a difficult time. So I thought that the idea of day after a really long, difficult night, would be pretty appropriate... I think the album's about contrasts too - contrasts of emotion - so I thought the comparison was appropriate.”
“Some people say 'what would happen if we had a Communist Chancellor of the Exchequer?' I would ask in reply, 'what would happen if he had a lot of Fascist or Mosleyite bank chairmen?' In that event it might be thought disadvantageous to have publicity.”
