Every bit of me is devoted to love and art. And I aspire to try to be a teacher to my young fans who feel just like I felt when I was younger. I just felt like a freak. I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm trying to liberate them, I want to free them of their fears and make them feel that they can make their own space in the world.

No great art has ever been made without the artist having known danger.

The enemy of art is the absence of limitations.

Only through art can we emerge from ourselves and know what another person sees.

Youth is the gift of nature, but age is a work of art.
