I like things that go into hidden, mysterious places, places I want to explore that are very disturbing. In that disturbing thing, there is sometimes tremendous poetry and truth.

I've loved music always, and my music fire was lit by Elvis Presley, really, and all that was happening back then.

I don't think it was pain that made [Vincent Van Gogh] great - I think his painting brought him whatever happiness he had.

Every time I hear sounds, I see pictures. Then, I start getting ideas. It just drives me crazy

The concept of absurdity is something I'm attracted to.

Intuition is knowingness, and this field of unbounded knowing, of knowingness, is within every human being. You start tapping into that and it becomes an ocean of solutions.

Absurdity is what I like most in life, and there's humor in struggling in ignorance. If you saw a man repeatedly running into a wall until he was a bloody pulp, after a while it would make you laugh because it becomes absurd.
