I've made lots of big decisions in my life that have shocked people.

I think you only see experiences as defining moments with distance.

I find that I put my body in my work when I am at a particularly difficult or joyous point because I want to feel that moment.

I love life. I think it's fantastic. Sometimes it deals hard things, and when it deals great things, you have to seize them.

Having children is exciting. Life puts the past into perspective.

Sometimes when you're looking at your own work, you can't really see, and it's only when you step back a little bit later that you think, "Oh, that's completely in line with everything else I've done".

One of the few times I saw my mother cry was when Lennon died, and the other time was when Elvis died.
