I'm coming 'round to the view that there's only a personal view of the world.

I made a photograph of a garden in Kyoto, the Zen garden, which is a rectangle. But a photograph taken from any one point will not show, well it shows a rectangle, but not with ninety degree angles.

What an artist is trying to do for people is bring them closer to something, because of course art is about sharing. You wouldn't be an artist unless you wanted to share an experience, a thought.

If you see the world as beautiful, thrilling and mysterious, as I think I do, then you feel quite alive.

Listening is a positive act: you have to put yourself out to do it.

Faces are the most interesting things we see; other people fascinate me, and the most interesting aspect of other people - the point where we go inside them - is the face. It tells all.

Art has to move you and design does not, unless it's a good design for a bus.

I was aware that the teaching of drawing was being stopped almost 30 years ago. And I always said, 'The teaching of drawing is the teaching of looking.' A lot of people don't look very hard.

The urge to draw must be quite deep within us, because children love to do it.

Living is a process of developing oneself. Without experiencing pain from disconcerting periods of our lives, we would be different person, perhaps a lesser person.

What if I turned out to be a great kisser, and suddenly, girls everywhere wanted to kiss me? Did I really want to risk losing my free time to watch people so I could kiss every girl in town?

It Girl' is such a weird term. It implies I go to parties and drink champagne.

I wish the battles of men could be solved in their heads.

The way campaign funds are distributed are all a matter of record.

Dennis the Menace was probably the most realistic comic book ever done. No space aliens ever invaded!

I'm pretty good at taking accountability now, and I never did anything to deserve that. It was a really lousy thing for her to do.

Honesty is of God and dishonesty of the devil; the devil was a liar from the beginning.

Mass killings have gone from being an extremely rare occurrence to a common occurrence.

Who was Jesus? God saves.
