business dating employee
Employees make the best dates. You don't have to pick them up and they're always tax-deductible.
thinking commercial-art people
During the 1960s, I think, people forgot what emotions were supposed to be. And I don't think they've ever remembered.
love fall artist
The most exciting thing is not doing it. If you fall in love with someone and never do it, it's much more exciting.
artist wish stills
I always wished I had died, and I still wish that, because I could have gotten the whole thing over with.
country artist commercial-art
What's great about this country is that America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest.
funny war mean
I used to think that everything was just being funny but now I don't know. I mean, how can you tell?
tombstone artist names
I never understood why when you died, you didn't just vanish, everything could just keep going on the way it was only you just wouldn't be there. I always thought I'd like my own tombstone to be blank. No epitaph, and no name. Well, actually, I'd like it to say 'figment.'
believe mirrors light
I believe in low lights and trick mirrors.
beautiful beach art
I can never get over when you're on the beach how beautiful the sand looks and the water washes it away and straightens it up and the trees and the grass all look great. I think having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want to own.
beautiful girl new-york
The girls in California were probably prettier in a standard sense than the New York girls--blonder and in better health, I guess; but I still preferred the way the girls in New York looked--stranger and more neurotic (a girl always looked more beautiful and fragile when she was about to have a nervous breakdown).
giving people fantasy
People's fantasies are what give them problems. If you didn't have fantasies you wouldn't have problems because you'd just take whatever was there.
love sex together
Love and sex can go together and sex and unlove can go together and love and unsex can go together. But personal love and personal sex is bad.
men like-love buying
Brigitte Bardot was one of the first women to be really modern and treat men like love objects, buying them and discarding them. I like that.
want way machines
The reason I'm painting this way is that I want to be a machine, and I feel that whatever I do and do machine-like is what I want to do.
