I definitely think about death. And every day your relationship with death changes. And every day I sort of feel like I know it more. I've always thought about it.

But the answer to how to live is to stop thinking about it. And just to live. But you're doing that anyway. However you intellectualise it, you still just live.

A lot of people thought I wasn't doing anything because I was spending a lot of time socialising and going out, but I've always managed to get work actually done.

I just wanted to find out where the boundaries were. So far I've found there aren't any. I just wanted to be stopped, and no one will stop me.

The goal in life is to be solid, whereas the way that life works is totally fluid, so you can never actually achieve that goal.

I'm 43. I'm not ready to sit down in a chair with my name on it yet.

I always try to make everyone mellow down, make sure everybody's happy. The people I have employed have always kind of stayed with us. A lot of people who come to work for you are artists in their own right. And they want to work for you because they want to pick something up.
