My favorite artist's statement goes like this:
When I was a teenager I used to write “how do you like your blueeyed boy Mister Death?” all over the place. Now that I’m older, I’ve learned to lighten up.
When I was teenager I used to say, “I don’t want to be a man when I get older because men are assholes.” Now that I’m older it occurs to me that I may have been an asshole all along.
