Maybe I was a little jealous or envious of the abstract painters - but the truth was I thought what they were doing was boring.

Julia was blind and deaf to to the truth. She was ignorant. Did one reprove a blind woman for inability to see? Did one become angry with the deaf for not hearing?

The defense was good for the most part all night. I thought early on, Chris Paul, that was the game plan, just try to get the ball out of his hands and make somebody else make plays.

I guess I've always liked the idea of being an artist.

I spent seven months in Africa and came back saying there isn't anything you can say about black people that you couldn't say about, say, pink people except that they're black.

Any art communicates what you're in the mood to receive.
