The wheel that squeaks gets the oil.

Sometimes i feel lonely, but it's ok

People don't remember. Revenge is sweet.

I have hardly any friends who aren't gay

The soul will always do what it needs to do.

It pleases me that people can be interactive

People try constantly to use me and I hate it.

I found that life has to be edited to continue.

People try constantly to use me, and I hate it.

I've been slagged off completely by the art world.

One thing that success has taught me is censorship.

I'm not opposed to commerce, even though I'm an artist.

I'd like to think I inspire young people to be creative.

When I think about sex it makes me realise how alone I feel.

It wasn't so much destroying my dancing, it was destroying me

It wasn't so much destroying my dancing, it was destroying me.

For me, being an artist with a high profile is a good thing for art.

Women, at 50, are on a plateau with their careers, but later they ascend.

There is nothing difficult about my work, and people get to hear it from me.

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

Maybe I don't believe things myself, as well. Truth is such a transient thing.

Art is like a lover whom you run away from but who comes back and picks you up.

Maybe I don't believe things myself, as well. Truth is such a transient thing...

My work rarely comes up in secondary market, so it means that my prices stay low.

I had to come to terms with my failure as an artist... I had to find a way for myself.

They look at someone like me, and I just really get up their nose. I really wind them up.

I really love animals. My cat is my little soul mate. He's not just a cat, he's my friend.

I've got to start using my brain more - I've got to be more ethereal and more enlightened.

My mum has never wanted me to have children. She thinks I would be destroying my life, even now.

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

I know people went to laugh at my bed and to jeer at it. Still, at least they actually went to see it.

I am fiercely independent and I probably wouldn't be if it wasn't for the way in which I was brought up

I've got over so much. Mum wouldn't want anything to come into my life that would make me fragile again

I've got over so much. Mum wouldn't want anything to come into my life that would make me fragile again.

I am fiercely independent and I probably wouldn't be if it wasn't for the way in which I was brought up.

It's my memory, and what happened between that moment 10 or 15 years ago and now, there's a lot of gray area

They grew really quickly. One minute I didn't have any tits and the next I had the biggest tits in the world.

Most people don't do something seminal. I've done it twice: with my tent and my bed. Picasso did it with Cubism.

When you don't have children you have to define and make your own purpose, and make your own reason for being here.

I feel physically ill if I don't make work, I don't create. I don't feel very good. I don't feel right, I feel wrong.

There should be something revelatory about art. It should be totally creative and open doors for new thoughts and experiences.

All the mistakes I've ever made in my life have been when I've been drunk. I haven't made hardly any mistakes sober, ever, ever.

I'm a terrible cook, but if I could cook, I would see that in art as well, it's how much creative energy you put into something.

What's really good about the word 'art' is that 'art' is a word like 'love,' or 'god,' or whatever. It transcends so many things.

If I didn't want to work for a couple of years, I wouldn't have to-it's a great feeling, to know I'm doing it because I want to do it.

If I didn't want to work for a couple of years I wouldn't have to - it's a great feeling, to know I'm doing it because I want to do it.
