It's the ultimate conceptual artwork. I took a piece of metal and just painted an image of a stop sign on it - a four-by-four-foot stop sign.

I like when people have opinions - especially about art. You can hate my art. I made my art to be hated. That's why I made the name paintings.

I'm a happy, happy person. I laugh. I'm not angry. I'm only disgusted with a few people in the world that I have to see. But I'm not angry at all.

I didn't want it to have any technical virtuosity; I wanted it to just be really clear how it was made. For my work in general, it's always really clear how it is made.

True friendship develops not as a result of money or power but on the basis of genuine human affection.

Some people live more in 20 years than others do in 80. It's not the time that matters, it's the person.

Even though I loved to write, I never liked English lit. class very much. I think it ruins books when you dissect them too much. I liked my art classes best.

There's nothing so similar to one poodle dog as another poodle dog, and that goes for women, too.

I don't think anyone has done a [tablet] product that I see customers wanting.
