If I had anything meaningful to say I wouldn’t have to write it as poetry.

I think most artists, especially those who deal with contemporary issues and mean it, look forward to the day when their work will no longer be relevant.

My grievance isn't with art that is commercial, but art that is consumerist.

When an artist leans heavily on form, there's a possibility they don't trust or understand the material. Sometimes layers can elevate a work, but some things are better served if they are merely allowed to exist.

Science sustains life, but art makes it tolerable.

Many are quick to dismiss those who pursue the arts, insisting a degree in one useless or a vow of poverty appropriate, yet wouldn’t want to live in a world without music, literature, television, or videogame.

Somewhere along the way, the conversation was shifted away from the vision of directors to that of producers. Yes, art is commerce, but I sometimes wonder if general audiences truly like art, or do they prefer accounting?

It is not art or literature's place to teach lessons but to challenge everything that's been taught.

Women born works of art, men doomed to spend entire lifetimes trying to create just one.
