I can't cut off an ear everyday. Do the Van Gogh here and the Mozart there. Anyway it's exhausting enough always having to check up on what one is really doing!.

Entertainment and art are not isolated.

You really can't bring about anything new with art.

My style is where you see the individual and where a personality is communicated through actions, decisions, single objects and facts, where the whole draws together to form a history.

A good artist has less time than ideas.

What people will say about me then - or maybe not say - will be the only thing that finally counts.

Nobody helps anybody.

Assuming roles is something that simply won't work for me, since I don't have a style. None at all.

I'm not interested in provoking people, but only in trying to be consoling.

Entertainment is in art like color in pictures.

What I'm working on is for people to be able to say that Kippenberger had this really good mood.

An artist who opposes himself still has the best chances to reach some result.

I am a travelling salesman. I deal in ideas.

I am not an easel-kisser.

I can't hold the tears back. It wasn't fair that your life had to end. I'll always keep you in my heart. Rest in peace my friend.

John McCain knows as well as anyone that Sarah Palin has no business being anywhere near the Oval Office. I'm sorry, it's got nothing to do with the fact that she wears skirts - she's grossly unqualified.

Being aware of your fear is smart. Overcoming it is the mark of a successful person.

I love school and science; I also love piano and music.

The U.S. prosecution service is eating at the soul of the American republic. It is an absolute danger to everyone.

For example, I loved English and history at school. I would have loved to have done a degree in either. But my Mom said I didn't have time for university.

The strings to our past are burned because we need a new beginning.

I've made it clear that I have an open door policy - which means that the employee can tell me anything that is on their mind.

Intelligence is not the ability to store information, but to know where to find it.

I think it is going to be hard for individual OEMs to create a platform on top of which people will write content and services and which users will transact.

Humility is not about having a low self image or poor self esteem. Humility is about self awareness.

Successful people breed success.

I like the comedians that go into detail and tell longer stories.

It is soooooo necessary to get the basic skills, because by the time you graduate, undergraduate or graduate, that field would have totally changed from your first day of school.

One of the things that strikes me is so many of the critics are people whose lifestyle doesn't change when the price of fuel changes, or if they keep a Wal-Mart store out of their area.

Good apple pies are a considerable part of our domestic happiness.

When Elvis made his mass-media debut on 'The Ed Sullivan Show' - his notorious gyrations filmed only from the waist up - I fell off the family chaise longue with delight.

Observe and reflect, and become a little wiser every day.

All the faults of the age come from Christianity and journalism. Christianity, of course, but why journalism?

He who speaks evil only differs from his who does evil in that he lacks opportunity.

People say, 'What a discipline, painting so much.' I say, 'No, I love it.' Nothing amuses me as much as my work. To have discipline would be not to paint.

I'm constantly trying to find something that's different from me, whereas some actors do the same thing, again and again. That's not for me.

Everybody has their thing. I think you can always do what you like.

I am the farthest thing from a computer genius.
