I'm a sign painter with no boss.

Sheer obstinacy is very very important for anybody who wants to create.

Follow your heart, and your pleasure in art. Don’t do what you think is going to be making you money, or what you’re parents want you to do, or what that beautiful girl or guy thinks you should be doing. Do what you love. It’s going to lead to where you want to go. Go out there and make the world more beautiful. I know you can.

I am very suspicious of cameras and dramatic interpretations and the whole Hollywood myth-making process. I don't trust it. I've seen it affect people in bad ways.

Do what you love. It’s going to lead to where you want to go.

All I do is work, that's all my life is work.
