One Of My Biggest Problems In Life

People Could Live Very Happily Without The Turner Prize, But They Could Not Live Without Real Communication And Emotion.

Bowie And Mccartney Arrived, And The Biscuits And Caviare Started And I Left Immediately. I Don't Like Shouting Across Rooms, With People In Shiny Suits Who Look Like Used-car Salesmen.

I Gave Up Drinking Lots Of Whiskey And Began To Practice Yoga And Meditation. As A Result I Am Not Dead.

Artists Who Don't Paint Aren't Artists.

Before 1999, Tracey Emin And Sarah Lucas Offered To Get Me Exhibitions, But Joining The Stuckists Put A Kaibosh On All That - Because I Wasn't Prepared To Be Controlled. I Agreed To Co-found The Stuckists To Be Allowed To Say What I Wanted, And I Left The Stuckists Because I Didn't Really Want To Be In Them In The First Place.
