Tell your own story, and you will be interesting.

My knives are like a tongue - I love, I do not love, I hate. If you don’t love me, I am ready to attack. I am a double-edged knife.

Don't get the green disease of envy. Don't be fooled by success and money. Don't let anything come between you and your work.

I found in rules of mathematics a peace and a trust that I could not place in human beings. This sublimation was total and remained total.

It is a great privilege to be able to work with, and I suppose work off, my feelings through sculpture.

I was a runaway girl from France who married an American and moved to New York City. Im not sure I would have continued as an artist had I remained in Paris because of the family setup.

My work has to do with a defense against fervor. People are always in a rush. To do what? To do nothing! There is a kind of fervor that is completely meaningless. This drawing is a call for meditation.... I am an insomniac, so for me the state of being asleep is paradise. It is a paradise I can never reach. But I still try to conquer the insomnia, and to a large extent I have done it; it is conquerable. My drawings are a kind of rocking or stroking and an attempt at finding peace. Peaceful rhythm. Like rocking a baby to sleep.
