I found that life has to be edited to continue.
Tracey Emin
People don't remember. Revenge is sweet.
Tracey Emin
I've always said if I could own one piece it would be Vermeer's The Love Letter, and if I could put it anywhere it would be in a David Chipperfield building. I'm almost there with the building - Chipperfield is building a new house for me in London. The Vermeer is a long way off.
Tracey Emin
If I were really, truly in love with someone who was truly in love with me, then I would get married, but that would be the only reason I'd get married.
Tracey Emin
It wasn't so much destroying my dancing, it was destroying me
Tracey Emin
I had become conscious of my physicality, aware of my presence and open to the ugly truths of the world. At the age of thirteen, I realised that there was a danger in innocence and beauty, and I could not live with both.
Tracey Emin
There is nothing difficult about my work, and people get to hear it from me.
Tracey Emin
All the people in the late '80s and early '90s were really hell-bent on doing something for themselves, and they wouldn't take no for an answer. There was a lot of determination, and I was definitely part of that way of thinking.
Tracey Emin
I have hardly any friends who aren't gay
Tracey Emin
Maybe I don't believe things myself, as well. Truth is such a transient thing...
Tracey Emin
People try constantly to use me and I hate it.
Tracey Emin
The reason why I'm popular as an artist in this country is because it suits the psyche of the nation at this time. Ten years ago, my work wouldn't have had any currency, any popularity at all. Before in this country, you had to be accepted. You had to be part of the group. Now it's probably more trendy to have a problem.
Tracey Emin
Strolling on the plateau of life, desperate for the mountain, I never thought that I would get this far. It's only art that has carried me through, given me faith in my own existence. But now I am approaching a point in my life where I desire more.
Tracey Emin
There are things going on in galleries recently that have shocked me. What I'm going to say is really controversial, but what I find the most provocative is the commerciality of art in general. And the fact that a lot of people have forgotten what the meaning of art is and what the intention behind it is.
Tracey Emin
The words went round and round and round in my mind and my body, until I knew they were no longer my words but something that had been carved into my heart. And now my soul was crying.
Tracey Emin
I've never been married because, first of all, I don't think I've ever seriously been asked by anyone who I wanted to marry. [...] And also I'm monogamous.
Tracey Emin
I want to spend my life with someone and do nice things and go on adventures, read books and have nice food and celebrate things. I don't want to spend the rest of my life in the bedroom like some people who just go to bed and never get out again.
Tracey Emin
I really love animals. My cat is my little soul mate. He's not just a cat, he's my friend.
Tracey Emin
There's so much stuff said about me that's not true, so now if something is hurtful and wrong, I send an e-mail or letter immediately, saying, This is not true.
Tracey Emin
I don't ask for an apology because it's only tomorrow's fish-and-chip paper.
