I believe all painting and art should be uplifting for the viewer.

It's such a crass idea - you're either in love or out of love.

I can't understand why most people believe in medicine and don't believe in art, without questioning either.

I have always been aware that you have to get people listening before you can change their minds. Any artist's big fear is being ignored, so if you get debate, that's great.

It's very easy to say, 'I could have done that,' after someone's done it. But I did it. You didn't. It didn't exist until I did it.

I think as an artist you have to reinvent yourself every day.

Painting is so poetic, while sculpture is more logical and scientific and makes you worry about gravity.

You've really got to get down on the floor with yourself and get low in order to make great art. I think you've just got to accept who you are and do the most unbelievable things.

I sometimes feel that I have nothing to say and I want to communicate this.

I love color. I feel it inside me. It gives me a buzz.

I realised that you couldn't use the tools of yesterday to communicate today's world. Basically, that was the big light that went on in my head.

Not in the clamor of the crowded street, Not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, But in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.

It was somehow slightly frightening, like the gambolling of tiger cubs which will soon grow up into man-eaters.

The ultimate language of yoga is expressed in doing yoga, a practice that transcends words as we open our lives to living more consciously through the infinite wisdom of the heart.

You can live with victory over the desires of your flesh. Habits, attitudes, desires, worries, and dissipation must yield as you exercise authority over your mind, emotions, and will.

When safety is our priority, we live our lives being very, very careful, and we wind up having no lives

Clear thought makes clear speech.

I always knew what I was doing.

All too often the church holds up a mirror reflecting back the society around it, rather than a window revealing a different way.

God's will has to be done in unifying people and companies to get that gas line built, so pray for that.

Time has only a relative existence.
