Some of these bulls are gonna' spin those cowboys so fast, they'll look like a frog in a blender.

I become exaggerated, and loud, and obnoxious, and full of the spirit of improvisation. That's one of the weird things about performing, I think that any performer will say the same thing when you're on stage in front of a crowd there's a certain moment when you kind of click into a trance-like state and you just kind of go with it. I love getting into that mode. It's transcendental.

Making art is nothing but risk, always. If it's not risk, it's no good.

The only tip I have for an artist is perseverance... Never give up.

First of all I think of puppets as sculpture. They are sculpture that moves. You could label it any way you want, but for me it always starts in my mind as a sculpture.

As far as I'm concerned, there is no line between high art and pop art, and there should be no line.

Exposing something that's painful or raw or not so pleasant. That seems to be the dramatic motor of documentaries, exposure.
