I listed to Tchaikovsky. He is both kitsch and profound. I love that lack of "Good taste."

I hate roses. Don't you? It's all right if you can hide them in a cutting garden, but I think a rose garden is the height of ick.

I sit for two or three hours and then in 15 minutes I can do a painting, but that's part of it. You have to get ready and decide to jump up and do it; you build yourself up psychologically, and so painting has no time for brush. Brush is boring, you give it and all of a sudden it's dry, you have to go. Before you cut the thought, you know?

I had my freedom and that was nice.

Every line is the actual experience with its own unique story.

I love my sculptures, and I was lucky I had them for 50 years because no one would look at them and I really liked having them around.
