Tracey Emin, quoted in Dylan Jones’s newish oral history of the Velvet Underground:
When I was at school, I used to imagine that I would go to New York by boat and when I walked down the gangplank Andy Warhol would be there waiting for me.
The thing is, I still believe that...
PS: From the same book, and in a similar vein, Jones himself gets in on the act:
...I even went through a phase of rolling up my drainpipe jeans – skinhead style – worn with pink socks and black Dr. Marten shoes, in the vain hope of trying to advertise the fact that I owned records by people who lived in New York.
