"To see the light we must first acknowledge that we are in the dark."
"Men and women who are content to accept without question, the deceptions of policemen should apply to become magistrates as they are already fully qualified and those who are happy to swallow the lies of their politicians are no different from they, who,when forced to consume their own excrement, can convince themselves that it is delicious."
"Unless the truth be sinful, it should not possible to find fault with a man who views the world through a camera."
"When blood begins to ooze from wounds in the judge's hands, it is too late to beg for mercy. All other judges may safely be ignored."
"Art is the politics of self and the companion to solitude. Genius is solitude refined."
"We make the mistake of believing that we can solve the problems of poverty using money but money was not invented to feed the poor, it was invented to feed the rich. To rid the world of poverty we must first eradicate desire, including the desire to rid the world of poverty."
"Making Art is the closest we can get to God without actually having to be good."
"I prefer the silent sinner to the noisy saint, the modesty of sin to virtue's boast."
"It is better to live in a one-room hovel on the outskirts of Paradise than a luxury apartment in downtown Hell."
