But if you can find that spot - I suppose it's like running - I used to be a swimmer and swim laps, and you just have to be there with what you're doing.

I want to be in the studio. I want to be doing something. You just do whatever is at hand, and you don't even worry about whether it's going to be interesting or not interesting to anybody else-or even yourself. You just have to make something.

And sometimes the question that you pose or the project that you start yourself turns into something else, you know, but at least it gets you started.

I don't like to think about being an influence. It's embarrassing.

In art, the only one who really knows whether what you've done is honest is the artist.

And I don't have any specific steps to take because I don't start the same way every time. But there is a knowing when it's enough and you can leave it alone.

The true artist helps the world by revealing mystic truths.
