If you were to climb up on your desk, walk around behind your monitor and lean way over so you could see the screen, you'd be able to read "Wordplay" just as easily as you could sitting in your chair.

As both a fine artist and a graphic designer, I specialize in the visual presentation of words.

Language, philosophy, and science are interwoven into the design of words, which are manipulated to create surprising illusions.

I ain't got no magical powers and mystical trips and all that kind of crap. It's kind of silly.

I like to keep my budgets at a certain price when I work for someone else, and even more so now that I'm working for myself, and use new technologies to deliver films that look like they have high production levels.

An insult is mean or unkind. Milton Berle called me the Sultan of Insult, and I was called the King of Insult. But the guy that gave me the best title - and I use it to this day - was Johnny Carson. He called me Mr. Warmth.

When I took my shirt off against Caen, everybody asked what these new tattoos were. I had 15 removable tattoos on my body; they are the names of real people who are suffering from hunger in the world.

The only pressure I feel is to write good books. And to not replicate the previous book. Whether you have a thousand readers or a million readers it doesn't change the pressure. I never feel tempted to give the reader what I think the reader wants.

I believe in God and immortality.

I got a big mouth.

'American Horror' in particular is a really crazy show. We have crazy crap happening to us on that show.

For me, soccer was a dance.

Time and trouble will tame an advanced young woman, but an advanced old woman is uncontrollable by any earthly force.

I think I'm a very good reader of poetry, but obviously, like everybody, I have a set of criteria for reading poems, and I'm not shy about presenting them, so if people ask for my critical response to a poem, I tell them what works and why, and what doesn't work and why.

Take the time today to be good to you, in thoughts, deeds and actions - but especially in your thoughts.

But grieving people are selfish. They wont let you comfort them and they say you dont understand and they make you feel useless when all your life youve been functional to them.

Because when you're really scared to do something, do it right away.

After pop art, graffiti is probably the biggest art movement in recent history to have such an impact on culture.

The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it but that it is too low and we reach it.

The real cause of personal existence is not the favor of the Almighty, but the sexual love of one's earthly parents.

We have to allow ourselves the freedom to make mistakes, including cultural mistakes, in our first drafts. I believe it's okay to get cultural details wrong in your first draft. It's okay if stereotypes emerge. It just means that your experience is limited, that you're human.

One thing for me that modeling definitely did was that you go to do a different job every day, and you are working with a completely new team of people. You have to learn how to talk to people and how to creatively achieve the same goals. I think it just hones your people skills.

To deny people their human rights is to challenge their very humanity.

That's something lacking in a lot of modern-day families - just talking. It's almost a lost art form.

There is no better feeling than doing well while you are doing good. If you really want to meet the nicest, most caring people in your field, get involved with charity work. The thankless hours that go into planning charity dinners, running a carnival, and gathering donations for silent auctions are noticed and appreciated.

The American story is a story of immigration. I would be the last person who would say immigrants are not important to America.

I think I have a very detailed sense of observation. I am interested in the details of people's lives and what information these details give.
