What's the point of cleaning up your act if you don't have an act?

I never stopped making pictures. There were times when more of my income was coming from other sources, and I had to devote more time to television and movies and records.

I try to not get to the point where one is making wallpaper, or simply painting money. I want to make sure that I am at least trying to weigh myself down, that there's a challenge each time.

Music helps set a romantic mood. Imagine her surprise when you say, "We don't need a stereo - I have an accordion."

I don't think you really can send an exact message, because any two viewers are so disparate, in terms of their backgrounds, their point of view, their histories, that there's no telling what that message might be.
