There are so many different desires that make you execute an artwork.

I feel like the biggest failure of humans is miscommunication. We can't communicate with each other-we can fight, we can kill, we can do those things well.

I'm really interested in the difference between selfishness and generosity. It confuses me to no end because sometimes it all just feels like pure indulgence on my part.

The night schedule is a crazy pit I fall into most of the time, but I do like it because the buzz of normal professionalism has gone away. Even though you're working, you feel like you're playing.

A lot of the images I use are already out there in the public or in the news. I just steal them or photograph them or repaint them, so they've already been talked about, already been consumed.

Language is the most beautiful and destructive thing because it allows you to express yourself, but it totally confuses everything.

A lot of people use a smiley face when they write letters. But it's this huge insane compulsion, like "I'm happy! I swear!" I'm not buying it. I don't believe them.

I love language, and I love the failure of language.

You better get used to touchy-feely around here, sweetie

I lay on my back, surprised at how calm and focused I felt, strapped to four and a half million pounds of explosives.

When we yield ourselves completely to God, He gives Himself completely to us.

We discard the personal specifics which don't conform to the ideal conventional beauty created by art directors and cinematographers.

That's the kind of stuff you are offered today. Scripts that have you mixed up with young men. I find them utterly revolting.

When I left 'Days of Our Lives,' I was like, 'I don't know if I'm ever working again. I'm going to do the best I can. If it happens, great. If not, well... it sucks for me.

He rarely knows the result of a battle when the battle is over.

There is a lesson in almost everything that you do, and getting the lesson is how you move forward. It is how you enrich your spirit.

The profoundest thought or passion sleeps as in a mine, until an equal mind and heart finds and publishes it.
