When I paint a woman in an armchair, the armchair is there to show illness and death-or as a protection.

Beauty? To me it is a word without sense because I do not know where its meaning comes from nor where it leads to.

Sex and art are the same thing.

Computers are stupid.

The important thing is to create. Nothing else matters; creation is all.

When I enter the studio, I leave my body at the door the way the Moslems leave their shoes when they enter the mosque, and I only allow my spirit to go in there and paint.

There's nothing more difficult than a line.
