Well, I like way downtown near the Battery. I lived down there at this time and for, I guess, the following well, this is where I moved to uptown and I've been here for four years and this is 1965.

If I declare it to be so, then this is a portrait.

By the time you establish your priorities, there really isn't any fun or need to interest yourself in what you're doing. And this I find disastrous.

Understanding is a form of blindness. Good art, I think, can never be understood.

I think a painting is more like the real world if it's made out the real world.

A newspaper that you're not reading can be used for anything; and the same people didn't think it was immoral to wrap their garbage in newspaper.

I'm quite taken aback when I get something that appears to be technically a good photograph, because it's not necessarily my intention.
