For me, staying in place might mean staying with my own thoughts, even if the body keeps traveling. I might be experiencing new things, but I'm also here, with myself.

If we have too much clarity, we might not be compelled to continue searching for new ideas.

When I visit new places, I like to see the markets.

When I first started working it was as if I didn't understand myself. The fact that I didn't understand myself was tied up with not understanding where I came from, where I began.

One gets wrapped up in reacting to ones own reputation, which can be a kind of trap.

My starting point was the search for my identity in foreign places, in places where I am estranged from myself.

I am a socialist, so I am not worried about socialism. I am worried about dictators who are putting everyone into a socialist state for their own benefit.
