Having your work in a museum is something we as artists aspire to, but I don't think that's something we need to worry about while we're alive.

I find it very difficult to be funny, it's much easier to do tragedy than it is to do comedy.

When I was in my early twenties I was doing tenant organizing - rent strikes, specifically - in my building. I think that was how I started doing poster art. It was something very concrete.

I think for an artist there are so many things to make pictures of now, that everyone else may be suffering, but at least artists will just be stimulated by it all.

Art grabs people by their eyeballs, it seduces them ... art is a means to an end rather than simply an end in itself.

Illustrators are usually illustrating something big or commercial if not outright advertising. It's a form of prostitution, but that's cool because we don't have any moral hang-up about it.

I don't even believe in magic, or ghosts or anything like that, and yet in a city like New York, on the subway, I definitely see ghosts and art seems to have some magical properties.

Whether it's a street poster on a brick wall, a magazine cover on a newsstand, or animation on a movie screen - art is an effective means of communicating with large numbers of people.

I think so much of art is unconscious anyway, the artist doesn't know the real reason they're doing it. They're just kind of going along with it intuitively.

Art is one of the few ways we have of dealing with things that frighten or anger us.

Art is one of the few places where you can put it in a constructive way where it won't burn you up inside or hurt anyone.

Some people feel love in their hearts, Julie. Some of us feel it all way into our souls. We're the ones who can't forget.

Love is whole. Love cannot be divided from itself. Love knows all paths, where even gods and cats are blind.

You could have heard a bee fluff

Human beings have survived for millennia because most of us make good decisions about our health most of the time.

I am turned into a sort of machine for observing facts and grinding out conclusions.

You don't need directions, just point yourself to the top and go!

Perfectly ordered disorder designed with a helter-skelter magnificence.

No war by any nation in any age has ever been declared by the people.

It's the pleasure of picking up the brush and seeing what happens.
