You've really got to get down on the floor with yourself and get low in order to make great art. I think you've just got to accept who you are and do the most unbelievable things.

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.

As soon as something becomes art I think you get over the fear

Most people live in the city and go to the country at the weekend, and that's posh and aristocratic, but actually to live in the country and come to London when you can't take it any more is different.

In fact, the first piece of art I ever sold, I paid someone else to make the next one, so I could actually keep going out drinking.

It's amazing what you can do with an E in A-Level art, a twisted imagination and a chainsaw.

But I'm more interested in why people are frightened by Jaws and why Jaws was such a hit than saying Spielberg's my main influence.
