I always feel like the art's there and I just see it, so it's not really a lot of work.

Sometimes when you're drunk you can see better.

I have always been aware that you have to get people listening before you can change their minds. Any artist's big fear is being ignored, so if you get debate, that's great.

I quite like it to be risky. I'm not ready to sit down in a chair with my name on it yet. I've arrived at that point in the art world where there really is a chair that you sit in.

I used to believe I was going to live forever. And then you suddenly become aware that you're not.

I think money is important for everyone, because the lack of it is so painful.

Picasso, Michelangelo, possibly, might be verging on genius, but I don't think a painter like Rembrandt is a genius.
