I think that the mythology of Van Gogh's life, and the beauty of his paintings, is unstoppable.

I coined this term 'freedom thru limitation' back in the '90s because I was sick of art being treated like pop, because of this boring 'anything can be art' theory.

We are not actually in charge of life, yet we behave as if we are the masters of our own destiny. The realization of this fact is quite a hard one. The ridiculousness of our pomposity and presumption can only result in anger or humor.

I'm not trying to achieve perfection. I don't like this forced control people have over work.

My favourite things are jokes, friendliness and feeling comfortable.

A moustache to a man is the same as a fringe is to a woman. When you've got it, you want to grow it out; when you've grown it out, you want to cut it.

I like feeling at home and knowing people. I like talking about ideas and being friendly.
