Profession: Artist Quotations: Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art. Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.;
I am a deeply superficial person. Those who talk about individuality the most are the ones who most object to deviation, and in a few years it may be the other way around. Some day everybody will just think what they want to think, and then everybody will probably be thinking alike; that; Fantasy love is much better than reality love. Never doing it is very exciting. The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet.;
The day will come when everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes. People sometimes say that the way things happen in the movies is unreal, but actually it's the way things happen to you in life that's unreal. The movies make emotions look so strong and real, whereas when things really do happen to you, it's like watching television -- you don't feel anything.; Love and sex can go together and sex and unlove can go together and love and unsex can go together. But personal love and personal sex is bad.; Dying is the most embarrassing thing that can ever happen to you, because someone's got to take care of all your details.; Before I was shot, I always thought that I was more half-there than all-there -- I always suspected that I was watching TV instead of living life. Right when I was being shot and ever since, I knew that I was watching television.;
An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have. Episode appearances: (no host)/Rod Stewart, Tina Turner;
