Having your work in a museum is something we as artists aspire to, but I don't think that's something we need to worry about while we're alive.

Americans didn't really have any experience with something as basic as "community."

I'm accustomed to just working by myself, alone in the room and cranking up the music and just working and getting all into an obsessive state where I'm focused on this thing, and it's the one thing that I feel like I may have a little bit of control over in my life.

With what we've been taught is the proper role of art, which is that you want to have it very neatly matted and framed and put on a white wall in some room where only a certain class of people are going to go in.

The problem with prostitution in my experience is that it's often unsatisfying.

I think for an artist there are so many things to make pictures of now, that everyone else may be suffering, but at least artists will just be stimulated by it all.
