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.

I hate people who act too cool for school. Just own up to it, dude.

I'm a perfectionist I guess. Everyone has to love me.

I'm a sign painter with no boss.

When we see something beautiful it calls up raw, naked emotion and that's an embarrassing situation to be in.

But nobody predicted anything of this magnitude in terms of resistance. And in part, the magnitude of the resistance was spurred by our failures in reconstruction.

People that are born beautiful like supermodels act like entitled a**holes. It makes you embarrassed just to see 'em. They handle beauty embarrassingly.
