The second time I was there I met Marcel Duchamp, and we immediately fell for each other. Which doesn't mean a thing because I think anybody who met Marcel fell for him.

First of all, I'd like to say here the fact that I'm not naturally a craftsman has made me work very hard.

Celibacy is exhausting.

Do be true to yourself, whether it's bad doesn't matter. The important thing - you have to copy while you're studying.

I happen to believe that there is an afterlife

Very few people know how to work. Inspiration, everybody has inspiration. That's just hot air.

But you can't realize, you can't know what another person goes through.

My life is full of mistakes. They're like pebbles that make a good road.
