I think it's the pain and suffering that drive you to become an artist. The art itself should be the pain, sort of exorcising every demon and making you feel like you're a person that matters.

I think art is the only thing that's spiritual in the world. And I refuse to forced to believe in other people's interpretations of God. I don't think anybody should be. No one person can own the copyright to what God means.

Art is the free expression of the artist and they tried to stop us from expressing ourselves, our art.

I think confidence is the most appealing quality in any human being or any artist; that's what really attracts us to people.

I think that when you are famous every weakness is exaggerated.

Pain is such an important thing in life. I think that as an artist you have to experience suffering.
