I see no reason why I should tickle stones or waste time on polishing bronze.

I think most artists create out of despair. The very nature of creation is not a performing glory on the outside, it's a painful, difficult search within.

I never feel age... If you have creative work you don't have age or time.

I have made my world and it is a much better world than I ever saw outside.
