"In the paintings where it's there—the tenderness—I work for it. I'm not afraid of it. If I could put my bleeding heart in there, I would."
From "9 Drawings for Projection (1989-2003): Stereoscope" (1999)

"When I first did the films they were very separate from my activity of drawing, which was art. And when a curator came and said he wanted to show my films, I felt insulted and I refused. It took me a long time to understand that it was all right that film was the substantive work I was doing."
