The first horror is there's horror. The second is you accommodate it.

You love life because life's all there is.

You can't live in dread of something for long without beginning to crave it.

I didn't cry. Real things don't make me cry. Only false or sentimental things can do that. In this respect I'm like most civilised humans.

You think horror enters spectacularly. It doesn't. It just prosaically turns up. Even in the first seconds you know you'll find it a room.

I am lucky in marriage and in dogs.

Life continues, and we all of us keep changing and building, toward what we cannot know.

Play is an expression of God's presence in the world; one clear sign of God's absence in society is the absence of playfulness and laughter.

While I am working I am not conscious of what I am putting on the canvas.

Reality TV is set up to make people entertaining. A good person with values and principles is not good television.
