I think about my work every minute of the day.

Art is something that happens inside us. We look at things in the world, and we become excited by them. We understand our own possibilities of becoming. And that's what art is.

Art to me is a humanitarian act and I believe that there is a responsibility that art should somehow be able to effect mankind, to make the word a better place.

I'm making some of the greatest art being made now. It'll take the art world ten years to get around to it.

Art is about profundity. It's about connecting to everything that it means to be alive, but you have to act.

Art is obsolete now. New technologies are taking over.

Art has this ability to allow you to connect back through history in the same way that biology does. I'm always looking for source material.

The media, the galleries, the collectors - it's all very chaotic actually. The artworld doesn't have this defined corporate structure that people imagine.

Every day I wake up and I really try to pinch myself to take advantage of today and to use that freedom of gesture to do what I really like to do.

I know how art has come in and really changed my life, so to give these children that opportunity just to come into contact with art - that's wonderful.

I love the gallery, the arena of representation. It's a commercial world, and morality is based generally around economics, and that's taking place in the art gallery.

Faith is courage it is creative while despair is always destructive.

Your choice of diet can influence your long term health prospects more than any other action you might take.

I pity people who do not care for Society. They are poorer for the oblation they do not make.

The same people own the media that own the White House that own the Congress that own the oil fields. They all work together to give a false view of the world to the American people.

Finally, I decided that the proper strategy was to stare back. Boys do not have a monopoly on the Staring Business.

I prepare mentally and physically for everything I do. I like having to do both, because you submerge yourself into the character and the world and you live it until it's over.

Ideas in a void have never appealed to me; action must follow thought or political life is meaningless.

And bring me a hard copy of the Internet so I can do some serious surfing.

Devils can be driven out of the heart by the touch of a hand on a hand, or a mouth on a mouth.

I want a platform that, like a book or a magazine, I can carry into the bath or leave at the beach.
