Throwaway snapshots come closest to achieving the state of pure picture.

I don't create blurs. Blurring is not the most important thing; nor is it an identity tag for my pictures.

Art is the highest form of hope.

It is a danger to wait around for an idea to occur to you. You have to find the idea.

A lot of different things had to come together over the years, accumulated experiences of a general and personal nature, before the idea and the decision were developed and then carried out.

I like everything that has no style: dictionaries, photographs, nature, myself and my paintings. (Because style is violent, and I am not violent.)

I would like to try to understand what is. We know very little, and I am trying to do it by creating analogies. Almost every work of art is an analogy.

All photographs are far more important than any painting.

Picturing things, taking a view, is what makes us human; art is making sense and giving shape to that sense. It is like the religious search for God.

I want pictorial content without sentiment, but I want it as human as possible

Abstract pictures are fictive models, because they make visible a reality that we can neither see nor describe, but whose existence we can postulate.

As usual, there is a great woman behind every idiot.

He'd never considered sweet and conservative to be so hot, but damn, Emma wore it well.

Lucky for me, as old as I am, I can still change.

I do what I want. I try to be nice to everybody. When I fail, I try to apologize.

Breathe... Everything is happening exactly as it should be.

Art's whatever you choose to frame.

I spent my entire childhood feeling like a freak because I liked to read. It's just like, "Eh, no one else likes to read but me; I must be crazy!"

I think parenthood is just ripe for comedy. This just happens to be told from the perspective of women.

The future will not belong to those who sit on the sidelines. The future will not belong to the cynics. The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

The meat of the buffalo tastes the same on both sides of the border.
