I don't get pictures taken of me when I leave clubs.

Reports in matters of this world are many, and our resources of mind for the discrimination of them very insufficient

People keep comparing me to people, and I just ignore it.

I'm really creating abstract shapes and relationships that work together. They come together and give the illusion of reality, but they're really abstract shapes. If you look at individual shapes, they aren't the shape of anything, but together they give you the illusion of hills and sun and flowers.

Living movements do not come out of committees.

If we can afford it, I personally think we should keep giving people MRIs a lot, so we can spot everything early. Our taxes should keep going towards healthcare so that people can be getting scanned regularly and checked over regularly.

If I'm not busy I start twiddling my thumbs.

My tumour is a benign pituitary tumour, in the pituitary gland - which is the main hormone centre of the body. It's in the centre of the brain. (Fun fact, [Rene] Descartes thought our consciousness was to be found in the pituitary gland.) And the thing is, there aren't really many symptoms that show until it's too late.

American liberty is premised on the accountability of free men and women for what they have done, not for what they may do.

We need to hold onto that so that people can be told in the right way that they're going through these things [like tumors] early instead of discovering them late. Discovering important health news too late happens far too much.

Once I started working, it became better and better. I really felt that I was back into the work. I was glad I was alive. Just being able to draw and paint - even if I can't walk - is worth living for.

I'm still quite small-minded and small-town, and people look at me like, You're too famous to remember me. I want to give them a tap on the shoulder and thank them.

Now I've got that [life is a journey not a destination] tattooed on my arm because it just reminds me of that time, and I think it's just an amazing quote.

No one can ever take my job away from me. I can always draw as long as I have a piece of paper and a pencil or paints.

All good art is abstract.

I was a big rugby player and into my motocross, so I lost loads of weight and a rumor went around the town that I had picked up a drug addiction!
