I don't have a philosophy in a nutshell; I would go on and on too much.

I asked someone once why he liked Jean-Michel's work and why it was being singled out for acclaim, and he said, 'Because it looks like art.' But then again, art doesn't always look like art at first. The way the space shuttle that lifts off doesn't much resemble the space shuttle as it lands.

To support myself as a kid, I was a model at art schools around Boston.

I want my soldiers - I mean artists - to be young and strong, with tireless energy performing impossible feats of cunning and bravura.

Every book I've written has been a different attempt to understand something, and the success or failure of the previous one is irrelevant. I write the book I want.

At the end of the day, the most overwhelming key to a child's success is the positive involvement of parents.

Success is simple. Do what's right, the right way, at the right time.

My best wishes are with Indian cricket in general. I wish each one of our cricketers success at the international and domestic level.
