Someone like myself, who claimed to be a real madman, living and organized with a Pythagorean precision.

I don't take drugs: I am drugs.

Give me two hours a day of activity, and I'll take the other twenty-two in dreams.

People love mystery, and that is why they love my paintings.

Sometimes I spit on my mother's portrait for pleasure.

Happy is he who causes a scandal

I think that the sweetest freedom for a man on earth consists in being able to live, if he likes, without having the need to work.
