I think the mystery of art lies in this, that artists’ relationship is essentially with their work — not with power, not with profit, not with themselves, not even with their audience.

I hope you are never victims, but I hope you have no power over other people.

Virginity is now a mere preamble or waiting room to be got out of as soon as possible; it is without significance.
