Ultimately, because I'm an artist, I can't ever consider myself a nihilist, so I suppose I'm optimistic.

When I finish a picture I don't show it to anyone if I feel it's not good enough yet. I've learnt to listen to my partners and my friends. For me it's the biggest success if they like it.

I often obsess so much about things that I can't get done, that I ruin other things.

Image and music always works together for me. I think they're equally important and I've always done things in a way that people remember them by, but I don't set out to just shock people...because that's very easy, a lot of people could do that, I just like to do things the way that makes me happy really. And sometimes that's too much for certain people, but, you know, I try to push the envelope to make the boundaries wider as far as what you can and can't do in music.

I've seen my own death in dreams like this and it's helped me appreciate life more. I've also seen my own life in dreams and it's helped me appreciate death more.

It wouldn't even make you gay if you had sex with Johnny Depp, 'cause it's Johnny Depp.

When you get to heaven, you will wish you were in hell.
