I mean, art for art's sake is ridiculous. Art is for the sake of one's needs.

My art will reflect not necessarily conscious politics but the unanalysed politics of my life.

My art springs from my desire to have things in the world which would otherwise never be there.

Art for art's sake is a philosophy of the well-fed.

Sleeping is no mean art: for its sake one must stay awake all day.

Every time you work, you have to do it all over again, to rid yourself of this dross. I suppose for a person who is not an artist or not attempting art, it is not dross, because it is the common exchange of everyday life.
