Five "Words of Wisdom" Quotes

  1. “I think you have a self in you, but you also need to create it in some ways.” 
  2. “Art is really not supposed to be this pretentious, upper middle class, kind of, luxury. You know, it’s for everybody.” 
  3. “We tend to not like ourselves very much. Because we don’t like ourselves, we don’t really like what we do artistically.” 
  4. “People need to question more about these things, about sense of who they are, and they need to get more honest and real with ourselves.” 
  5. “You just need to live creatively this way. You just need to live creatively this way.”
