I maintain my inner beauty by trying to lead a balanced life in general. I try to eat healthy foods but... that doesn't mean I won't treat myself now and then!

Chaotic people often have chaotic lives and I think they create that. But if you try and have an inner peace and a positive attitude I think you attract that.

Art is nothing but the expression of our dream the more we surrender to it the closer we get to the inner truth of things our dream-life the true life that scorns questions and does not see them.

When museums are built these days architects directors and trustees seem most concerned about social space: places to have parties eat dinner wine-and-dine donors. Sure these are important these days - museums have to bring in money - but they gobble up space and push the art itself far away from the entrance.

Great art is the outward expression of an inner life in the artist and this inner life will result in his personal vision of the world.
