Who you spend your life with-much more so than how you choose to spend it-is the most important decision you can make. Do it right. That's the best advice I can give you.

I'd be bored to death if I spent all my time with other businesspeople, bankers and lawyers.

Collectors become obsessive and then addicted. You become addicted to art and you can't live without it.

No one ever made a million bucks by being cautious or timid or reasonable.

I don't want to be in the film business. I'm not even sure it's a business.

Every artist is unreasonable, because he or she is doing something that hasn't been done before.

Anything I do, I spend a lot of time. I do it with passion and intensity. I want to be in charge.
