I use the world as my therapy – as my therapist.

[on Glastonbury] I started off the show and I completely messed up the music. And me, as you can imagine by this phone call, I’m a bit of a perfectionist. So it really put me into a slightly depressed state.

People couldn’t give an F about how many cars you got any more. It’s about the way the music sounds, where you’re going, the experience you’re going to hanging out with your friends, the type clothes that you’re wearing – all of that’s art.

I was so happy when I saw Jimmy Kimmel walk out in the Yeezys. That was an olive branch. He lead with love. I appreciate Jimmy and his team. You guys are Jedi’s. much love.

Look in my eyes right now – you see no sunken place.

I believe ‘ye’ is the most commonly used word in the Bible, and in the Bible it means ‘you’.

She opened up a book of poems and handed it to me written by an Italian poet from the 13th century and every one of them words rang true and glowed like burning coal pouring off of every page like it was written in my soul from me to you.

Art is the only way to run away without leaving home.

I think of art as the highest level of creativity. To me, it is one of the greatest sources of enjoyment.

What’s any artist, but the dregs of his work? the human shambles that follows it around. What’s left of the man when the work’s done but a shambles of apology.

There is no art without intention.

The role of a museum of modern art is to make a good selection and identify what we believe to be the coming movements, and that requires taste.

Can anybody be given creativity? No. Only equipment to develop it if it’s in them in the first place.

Nothing will stop you from being creative so effectively as the fear of making a mistake.

If you believe in your art and you love what you do, that energy will go out and people will respond.

From my point of view, which is that of a storyteller, I see your life as already artful, waiting, just waiting and ready for you to make it art.

We’ll buy some drugs and watch a band and jump in a river holding hands.

Creative Arts raise a person to another level of consciousness as if you could imagine life before words.

Make the best of every moment. We’re not evolving. We’re not going anywhere.

Truth exists in art.

People with talent are not interested in showing off behind another person.
