If I believe in anything, it is in the dark night of the soul. Awe is my religion, and mystery is its church.

If the sky falls they shall have clouds for supper.

There are people who live inside their heads and their intellects. It's something one is born with and stuck with. It's not something you make a decision about.

A 'truth' detached and purified of pleasures of ordinary life is not worth a damn in my view. Every grand theory and noble sentiment ought to be first tested in the kitchen-and then in bed, of course.

Found objects, chance creations, ready-mades (mass-produced items promoted into art objects, such as Duchamp's "Fountain"-urinal as sculpture) abolish the separation between art and life. The commonplace is miraculous if rightly seen.
