Whether it's sleeping or playing video games or riding my bike or studying. Giving my brain up. That's what's important.

I wanted to tell people, "My depression is acting up today" as an excuse for not seeing them, but I never managed to pull it off.

I didn't want to wake up. I was having a much better time asleep. And that's really sad.

And I could have died right then. And considering how things went, I really should have.

I can't eat and I can't sleep. I'm not doing well in terms of being a functional human, you know?

I have a system with bathrooms. I spend a lot of time in them. They are sanctuaries, public places of peace spaced throughout the world for people like me.

We look into each other's eyes as we shake. His are still full of death and horror, but in them I see my face reflected, and inside my tiny eyes inside his, I think I see some hope.

It's such a silly little thing, the heart.

Dreams are only dreams until you wake up and make them real.

That's worst than gonerreha, man!

I waste at least an hour every day lying in bed. Then I waste time pacing. I waste time thinking. I waste time being quiet and not saying anything because I'm afraid I'll stutter.

When you act against gravity, you break your body. When you act against Love, you break your heart.

Until you let go of that bitterness in your heart, it will find a comfortable place to destroy your dreams, your sight and most times, your sleep.

Surround yourself with good people. People who are going to be honest with you and look out for your best interests.

Science is not metaphorical. Science is scientific.

My art will reflect not necessarily conscious politics but the unanalysed politics of my life.

People realise that his promise [Tony Blair's] to 'save the NHS' was just talk.

In the eyes of my dog, I'm a man.

There isn't any real good reason for fighting except self-defense.

At the still point, there the dance is.

I don't look at my films or my old drawings much, so that was an interesting way to kind of reconnect with myself a bit.
