“I'm not the type of person to give up just because something gets rough. That's a coward. That's not me.”
“There's the fatigue that you have to forget about, because the red curtain still has to rise.”
“Our top priority is to relieve suffering of human beings.”
“Painting self-portraits without clothes on has also given me some publicity.”
“There were several parallels between Jonestown and Escuela Caribe. Both places used isolation to control a large group of people and censored their communication with the outside world so their loved ones wouldn't know about the rampant physical abuse and misery of the residents. I think the worst fallout, in both cases, was the living in constant fear, witnessing other residents get assaulted and worrying that you'd be next. That's where Post Traumatic Stress Disorder comes from.”

“We are more ready to try the untried when what we do is inconsequential. Hence the remarkable fact that many inventions had their birth as toys.”
“Sex keeps me fit and healthy. What can be better than that? It's not about crazy diets or gym workouts.”
