Make friends with your unconscious life. That's a great source of energy.

Psychoanalysis comes down to the process itself - the self, and life. I think I can say that I'm friends with the unconscious life, but I've never tried to make a painting directly from a dream.

Art is a great means of self-discovery. One of the things that appealed to me in the beginning was that it was a great way to get girlfriends.

The paintings have a lot to do with the idea of seeing and doing, and the relationship between your hand and your eye, and the object.

The idea is to have no idea. Get lost. Get lost in the landscape.

I've done a lot of bad things in the past, and that troubles me. It is often before I could say I was a self.

The idea of the self interests me a great deal. What is the self? And finding yourself, and which self? In a way, we're more than one self, but you somehow try to get to a rock bottom self.

Girls seemed to like artists! I felt very drawn to the idea of power, really, and doing painting as a power trip, in a sense. This idea of power has always driven me.

Don't underestimate the power of humor and the ability to laugh at yourself to deliver peace and serenity.

Life is a daring sacred existence.

Because I was there that day, and so were you.

Once out from it, never made a sound. Without sound, you never know who dies and who know so you dare?

Bad writing is not easier than good writing. It's just as hard to make a toilet seat as it is a castle window. Only the view is different.

Ah! If man would but see that hope is from within and not from without - that he himself must work out his own salvation.

Time - whether you are burning it up or falling in love or spreading it out thin in a dentist's waiting room - is a commodity that cannot be weighed out and measured by clocks.

To attain Buddhahood ... we must scatter this life's aims and objects to the wind.

Dinah Shore? Wonderful woman. Dinah formed a foundation to locate missing senior citizens by putting their pictures on prune juice bottles.

All official and liberal science defends wage-slavery, whereas Marxism has declared relentless war on that slavery.
