The public is in need of experiences that are not just voyeuristic. Our society is in a mess of losing its spiritual centre.

When you have so much pain, you think you will lose consciousness. If you say to yourself, ‘So what, lose consciousness,’ the pain goes away.

Artists should never think of themselves as an idol. Fame is a side effect of one's work.

You create a friendship on a level that you've never done before. The basic kind of experience is to basically give love to total strangers all the time, and that really changed everything in me. And this piece transformed me more than any other one before. I saw my entire life differently. What do I have to do? What is my passion on this planet? I'm much more focused than I ever was before.

I hate kitchens. I don't understand these enormous American kitchens that take up half the living room and then they just order pizza.
