As A Father, I Would Say I

I Did A Butterfly Show In Berlin, And We Had A Guy Who's An Expert On Butterflies; Who Bred Them All And Who Looks After Them All In The Space.

I Always Try To Make Everyone Mellow Down, Make Sure Everybody's Happy. The People I Have Employed Have Always Kind Of Stayed With Us. A Lot Of People Who Come To Work For You Are Artists In Their Own Right. And They Want To Work For You Because They Want To Pick Something Up.

To Be An Artist Is Not About Fame; It's About Art, Which Is This Intangible Thing That Has Got To Have Lots Of Integrity, Whereas Being Famous Doesn't Really Take Any Integrity. But I Think You Have To Admit That You Want To Be Famous, Otherwise You Can't Be An Artist. Art And Fame Together Are Like A Desire To Live Forever.

I'm 43. I'm Not Ready To Sit Down In A Chair With My Name On It Yet.

I Have Always Been Aware That You Have To Get People Listening Before You Can Change Their Minds. Any Artist's Big Fear Is Being Ignored, So If You Get Debate, That's Great.
