God has matured. He is not the impulsive, bowelless being of the Testaments - the vehement glorymonger, with His bag of cheap carny tricks and his booming voice - the fiery huckster with his burning bushes and his wonder wands. Nowadays God knows what He wants and He knows who He wants.

Additional quotes by Nick Cave

Thrown into a dungeon,
Bread and water was my portion,

A viper's voice would pleade,
A voice think with innuendo,
Syphillis and greed.

Up rib of rock, down spine of stone,
I dare not slumber where the right winds whistle,
Lest her creeping-soul clutch this heart of thistle.
