When I first heard that Barack Obama was going to be the first black president, I wanted to do the smallest, biggest tribute in history.

I work between my heartbeat. I have one-and-a-half seconds to actually move. And at the same time I have to watch I don’t inhale my own work.

All creatures are great and small.

People often swear the first time they see my work. I like that.

At school I'd want to be so small that nobody could see me, and so my work depicts and reflects me - what it felt like to grow up in a world of pain.

I was told I would become nothing. Now I am showing people how big nothing is.

As a kid, I lived in a fantasy world. I used to believe ants could talk. Not once did they say thank you.

Flying helicopters is what I do for fun.

When I was a kid, I had trouble at school because of my learning disabilities. Carving is my body compensating for the lack of other skills.

At home, when the heating pipes made noises, I imagined a tiny person was in there skipping with a rope. The fantasy world of tiny things became my escape.

Just because you can't see something, doesn't mean it's not there.

One returns to the place one came from.

Not to know certain things is a great part of wisdom.

Faith must trample under foot all reason, sense, and understanding.

Both during the elections and as Prime Minister, I have repeatedly and publicly said that I support the establishment of a Palestinian state alongside the State of Israel.

Baby you're my everything, you're all I ever wanted, we can do it real big, bigger than you've ever done it.

Love is always love, come whence it may. A heart that beats at your approach, an eye that weeps when you go away are things so rare, so sweet, so precious that they must never be despised.

In order to understand information, we must define it; bit in order to define it, we must first understand it. Where to start?

Everybody else is working to change, persuade, tempt and control them. The best readers come to fiction to be free of all that noise.

A man becomes a Buddha the moment he accepts all that life brings with gratitude.

Palestinian Arabs [are] people who breed and bleed and advertise their misery.
