Julian Schnabel
I think beauty is a feeling that you get after you've had an experience. It's the way you feel about it that is beautiful.
Julian Schnabel
I don't like building, I'm not a carpenter, I don't like constructions particularly and things like that, but placements and the kinds of psychological weight that different materials have is pretty interesting to me.
Julian Schnabel
I don't think people are terribly interested in young artists who were doing interesting thing, but I don't think people are terribly interested in young artists.
Julian Schnabel
Paintings are not like the Internet. They're not like movies. They're not electronic-friendly. You have to go see them. You have to stand in front of them. That's the great thing about them.
Julian Schnabel
I work with things left over from other things.
Julian Schnabel
If I hung one of my paintings next to someone else's, I knew mine would kind of pop off the wall.
Julian Schnabel
Everything I've seen becomes real once it becomes memory. The films I've seen are interchangeable with things that have really happened to me.
