It's a shame when other people's gambling habits change the meaning of paintings or when fluctuations of value start to dictate how people perceive art because it's too expensive to be interesting or...

My view is that comic books are meant to be long-form stories. They're meant to be novels.

From the time I was three or four years old, I drew all the time. Drew all the time, every second.

My mum was very interested in art and liked to write, and my dad was a hobbyist photographer.

Sean Penn's really the only one stupid enough to put anything down on paper.

I did a psychotherapy day once, about class, and the first thing they did was get us to talk about our names. Of course, me, being called Grayson, everybody thinks its somehow unusual and classy. No,...

I started off as a model maker, so the first part of my career was a model maker and then a motion control camera operator, so I shot a lot of miniatures.

I don't have this obsessive need to do street art all the time because it's already opened doors for me.

You have to know how to use the accident, how to recognise it, how to control it, and ways to eliminate it so that the whole surface looks felt and born all at once.

The brainy class is made up of individuals who think for themselves and beyond formal education are continuous learners who tend to be self-taught.

Gramacho is the last landfill that allows people in. Brazil is the leading nation in recycling due to its poverty. There are people there surviving from what they find in the garbage.

My culture comes from everywhere. I'm sick of this notion of nationality, that if you're brought up in the same city or same country you're the same. Even three kids brought up in the same family with...

What Apple did for technology is brilliant, but they didn't do anything for our economy.

There are certainly moments in the story room where you watch the movie die on the table. You put A next to B, and suddenly none of it lines up anymore. We feel that all the time. It's a terrible...

The attacks of which I have been the object have broken the spring of life in me... People don't realize what it feels like to be constantly insulted.

Parents shouldn't assume children are made out of sugar candy and will break and collapse instantly. Kids don't. We do.

The war industry people are very together; they know exactly what they want; they don't even have to talk to each other. The peace industry people are just intellectuals who are very critical of each...

If life is so critical, if Anne Frank could die, if my friend could die, children were as vulnerable as adults, and that gave me a secret purpose to my work, to make them live. Because I wanted to...

Nobody should force you to do a bad piece of work in your whole life - no client, no creative director, nobody. The job isn't to please the client; the job is to produce something for the client that...

It was in the 1920s, when nobody had time to reflect, that I saw a still-life painting with a flower that was perfectly exquisite, but so small you really could not appreciate it.

I'm just being normal. A normal woman. Well, I don't know what a normal woman is, but I'm a woman and I'm Yoko and I've never changed that.

Fire is the origin of stone. By working the stone with heat, I am returning it to its source.

I said, I don't want to paint things like Picasso's women and Matisse's odalisques lying on couches with pillows. I don't want to paint people. I want to paint something I have never seen before. I...

With the money I now have safely, I think I will retire at 66 years of age, praise God, in good health.

Cars are a fairly unpleasant thing to have to draw.

I draw all the time. Drawing is my backbone. I don't think a painter has to be able to draw, I just think that if you draw, you better draw well.

We created a brand for ourselves, so that now people can't get mad at what we do, because then they're just making of themselves.

I maintain that two and two would continue to make four, in spite of the whine of the amateur for three, or the cry of the critic for five.

I'm very learning-disabled, and I think it drove me to what I'm doing.

I remember, in my first show in New York, they asked, 'Where is the Indian-ness in your work?'... Now, the same people, after having watched the body of my work, say, 'There is too much Indian...
