I have to be pretty inclusive. I have to be pretty much inside of me rather than going out and finding out what people are doing. I don't have the time to. I just listen to my mind, in a way.

Power is not something we should be afraid of. Power is great, power is energy.

I see so many activists... who are artists because they feel that they have the power of communication.
