I thought it would be my one and only exhibition, so I decided to call it My Major Retrospective.

I didn't have an exhibition anywhere until I was 30. My first exhibition was at 30, and then for my first show in America, I'm 50. It's kind of all right: I'm just a slow burner.

I don't ask for an apology because it's only tomorrow's fish-and-chip paper.

It's happened time and time again, but the committee has always decided against it-the work was too conservative or didn't fit within the budget; there are millions of different reasons.

With any story I write, I could actually write it from three or four different perspectives, which would end with a completely different moral at the end.

I'd make a good friend, not mother. I'm too selfish. I think a lot of mothers are selfish and they end up having children, but I don't want to put some small tiny person through that.
