I never wanted to dilute my private passion for the art by airing and arguing it in public.

We work in the dark, We do what we can, We give what we have, Our doubt is our passion, And our passion is our task, The rest is the madness of art

Isn't the greatest freedom in the world the freedom to be wrong? What hooks me on our story is our different readings of it. You think it's personal and private; my neurosis... I think our story is performative philosophy.

It's a real wrenching thing to go from being a private person to being a public person, especially when you're being autobiographical.

These manly sentiments, in private life, make good citizens; in public life, the patriot and the hero.

Art shouldn't be prohibited in public schools when kids in private schools always get it.
