I have no interest in being a trained ballerina. People should dance how they want to dance. I want to be the funky chicken.

With my stuff, I think I've tried. I've been courted. I don't want to sound like an asshole, but I've been courted to be someone who could sell a lot of books.

So much of our culture is bought and manufactured - not to say great art can't come out of that. Some art is really amazing that is manufactured and sold, like action movies and stuff.

I guess the things I have always loved are from people who were just being themselves. They were doing these things because they couldn't do it any other way. It was for them.

I think a pretty good modus operandi is to believe that everything we know is wrong. The stomach will be the key to depression or consciousness or we'll realize ants are smarter than people.

We're artists. We cry out to be exploited on some level. Write a dissertation on my work. Write a biography about me.

The whole exploitation thing is funny, too. Exploitation is the nature of the world, isn't it?
