My life and art have not been separated. They have been together.

I think art is a total thing. A total person giving a contribution. It is an essence, a soul.. In my inner soul art and life are inseparable

Don't ask what the work is. Rather, see what the work does.

Chaos can be structured as non-chaos. That we know from Jackson Pollock.

I am interested in solving an unknown factor of art and an unknown factor of life.

In my inner soul art and life are inseparable.

I'm not Brad Pitt or George Clooney. Those guys walk into a room and the room changes. I think there's something more... not average, but everyman about me.

I came to love silence, because it's so rare, and it's now my favorite aural condition.

A good teacher is like a candle - it consumes itself to light the way for others.

When you're hurting another person, past a certain point you're cracking them open and whatever's inside them gets all over you. So you should kinda check out whether you want that to happen.

It takes two to make a thing go right.
