Oftentimes we love the thing we hate and vice versa.

My use of the medium - photography - is in some ways traditional.

As a former Catholic, and as someone who even today is not opposed to being called a Christian, I felt I had every right to use the symbols of the Church and resented being told not to.

I am just an artist.

I have always felt that my work is religious, not sacrilegious.

I like the aesthetics of the Church.

Unfortunately, the Church's position on most contemporary issues makes it hard to take them seriously.

I think if the Vatican is smart, someday they'll collect my work.

I like going to Church for aesthetic reasons, rather than spiritual ones.

In my work, I explore my own Catholic obsessions.

Oftentimes we love the thing we hate and vice versa.

An artist is nothing without his or her obsessions, and I have mine.

Some people have compared the Klan images to ecclesiastical figures.

My work is intensely personal.

One of the things that I am happy about in my life as an artist is that I am not considered a Hispanic artist.

People have to find ways of explaining the work.

I have always felt that I am the sum total of my parts.

I usually refer to myself as Hispanic.

My work has social implications, it functions in a social arena.

I am drawn to Christ but I have real problems with the Catholic Church.

Being born, especially being born a person of color, is a political act in itself.

Whenever possible, I operate outside the system.

I have never voted in my life.

I don't think that because I am Hispanic I should therefore do Hispanic work.

I like to believe that rather than destroy icons, I make new ones.

I have never been able to see myself as fitting into one category, and I have never been able to limit my contact with people to one group of people.

I like Church furniture.

I am an artist first and a photographer second.

I hate wasting people's time.

I hate failure and that divorce was a Number One failure in my eyes. It was the worst period of my life. Neither Desi nor I have been the same since, physically or mentally.

You either love or you hate. You live in the middle, you get nothing.

I used to smoke two packs a day and I just hate being a nonsmoker... but I will never consider myself a nonsmoker because I always find smokers the most interesting people at the table.

I hate the crazy, neurotic characters beyond a certain point.

I hate Stanley Clark, but I have to admit he's playing Jazz whether I like it or not.

In the past I've made movies that were pretty universally liked. You can't really hate them. You can discard them, but you can't really hate them.

In a war, you must hate somebody or love somebody; you must have a position or you cannot stand what goes on.

Listen kid, take my advice, never hate a song that has sold half a million copies.

The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends.

The high point of civilization is that you can hate me and I can hate you but we develop an etiquette that allows us to deal with each other because if we acted solely upon our impulse we'd probably go to war.

I hate leaving home. I love what I do, but I'd love to go home every night.

I hate it when people talk about Buffy as being campy... I hate camp, I don't enjoy dumb TV. I believe Aaron Spelling has single-handedly lowered SAT scores.

When people say 'love to hate', they actually mean 'love to be appalled by' - if they truly hated them, they'd never repeat a catch phrase.

I hate getting bored.

Don't hate the media, become the media.

The middlebrow, I hate.

If a university official's letter accusing a speaker of having a proclivity to commit speech crimes before she's given the speech - which then leads to Facebook postings demanding that Ann Coulter be hurt, a massive riot and a police-ordered cancellation of the speech - is not hate speech, then there is no such thing as hate speech.

We must make it clear that a platform of 'I hate gay men and women' is not a way to become president of the United States.

I'm like an old dog, I hate to be run off from home.

You've got to be taught to hate and fear.
