A strong work of art really leaves people speechless. They feel a little angry because they don't understand it.

Earth is the material with the most potential because it is the original source material.

The type of work I like is pure and simple and profound.

They are works of art that can be considered works of art but don't have to be in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum.

Frank Gehry for instance likes to imagine his buildings as sculptures. I like to imagine my sculptures as architectural.

Landscape to me is a planar thing, just a view. Environment is everything down to the ecosystem. Big difference.

I make static art, not dynamic art. That's what I do.

I’m self-entertaining. My dialogue is with myself.

This theme of bigness — all painters and sculptors have dealt with it ever since.

I wasn't raised to be into promoting myself.

I have looked at so many photographs, I can not see them anymore.

Change in thinking + shift in perspective = change in your life

Always walk away from a fight. Then ambush.

O call back yesterday bid time return.

Don't spend money on gear. Spend it on plane tickets.

It’s one thing if everyone wears the same shoes or drinks the same soda. But the world of literature is the last place in which globalization should mean homogeneity.

Dying is easy; it's living that's difficult.

As soon as we think we are safe, something unexpected happens.

Maybe we can comprehend a flower or an insect, but we can never comprehend ourselves. Even less can we expect to comprehend the universe.

Dialogue cannot exist without humility.

Okay, so maybe I'm romantic... but somebody is supposed to be romantic. Some warrior is supposed to go to war against the imperial forces of cynicism and irony. I am a sentimental soldier.
