I've always been fascinated by numbers. Before I was seventeen years old, I had lived in twenty-one different houses. In my mind, each of those houses had a number.

I think of my peace paintings as one long poem, with each painting being a single stanza.

Pop art is the American Dream, optimistic, generous, and naive!

My goal is that LOVE should cover the world.

Love is a dangerous commodity-fraught with peril.

I realize that protest paintings are not exactly in vogue, but I've done many.

I was the least Pop of all the Pop artists.

If you believe what you like in the Gospel, and reject what you don't like, it is not the Gospel you believe, but yourself.

Standing beside you, I took an oathto make your life simpler by complicating mineand what I always thought would happen did:I was lifted up in joy.

Overall we need to get tougher and bigger.

Violence is the ultimate human degradation.
