“I make art like I make love—slowly, so I get the most for my money.”

“I wish art was like money in that the more I made, the more interest it developed and plentiful it became. Money makes money, and if art made art, there’s no prison in this country that could hold my creations.”

“I like making money. I make it out of wood. I make nickels mostly.”

“I like spending all my time making things with my hands. Mostly I make love to myself.”

“What I love about being queer is... Everything. I like that it makes me different, and I like that it makes people uncomfortable sometimes. I like that it makes people ask me lots of questions about things they probably would not normally ask people about their relationships or lifestyles. And most of all I love being queer because i get to have a girlfriend.”

“I make conversation like I make love to myself—I let my hands do all the talking.”
