Sex is energy.

Celibacy is exhausting.

I was in a convent for a year.

I don't like to sell my finest pieces.

I, who wanted danger, adventure, and love

I'm not too interested in books about India.

I happen to believe that there is an afterlife

Yes, because when you're in love, you are shy.

Over and over I'm on the point of giving it up.

I happen to believe that there is an afterlife.

I owe it all to art books, chocolate and young men.

Here in America we're doing the most wonderful crafts

And then a great thing in my life was going to India.

Here in America we're doing the most wonderful crafts.

But, you see, the theatre is not always art in America.

You can't change the world, you can only change yourself.

You see, I was never stage-struck the way most girls were.

Certainly I was relatively a refined person. No way a tramp.

Well, I don't go out much socially. I don't enjoy going out.

But you can't realize, you can't know what another person goes through.

My life is full of mistakes. They're like pebbles that make a good road.

A rich poet from Harvard has no sense in his mind, except the aesthetic.

The only works of art America has given are her plumbing and her bridges.

And I have exposed myself to art so that my work has something beyond just the usual potter.

Very few people know how to work. Inspiration, everybody has inspiration. That's just hot air.

And then, of course, most potters, they go in for earth tones and subdued things, and I like color.

But I was very, very unhappy because my mother was very charming and generous, but to me, very dominating.

First of all, I'd like to say here the fact that I'm not naturally a craftsman has made me work very hard.

And several galleries - two had asked me and I said no, because I didn't want to leave things on consignment.

You know, acting is very fascinating. But being an actress is not, because you become so concentrated on yourself.

And I think maybe all women, if they just had a chance, would be romantic and believe in love and not sex. And men believe in sex and not love.

There's so much more to life than that, though I think that acting is fascinating because you can forget your own sorrow as you act and become somebody else.

The second time I was there I met Marcel Duchamp, and we immediately fell for each other. Which doesn't mean a thing because I think anybody who met Marcel fell for him.

You know, God, the power that makes life, whatever it is, had just to make two things, masculine and feminine, for all this mischief. And made them so there is this entirely different point of view about love and sex

Hardships and handicaps can...stimulate our energy to survive them. You'll find if you study the lives of people who've accomplished things, it's often been done with the help of great willpower in overcoming this and that.

I hang on to the statement of scientists that there is no time. Therefore, join me in telling everyone you are thirty-two. This allows me to go after young men and plan grabbing husbands from my girlfriends. Choosing to live in the timeless, I am now at the easiest and happiest time of my life.

Do be true to yourself, whether it's bad doesn't matter. The important thing - you have to copy while you're studying. And culture is - each of us - is like one pearl added to another to make a chain. We each contribute to the other. And that's all right. But once you're on your own, do that which comes from within. And I feel this very strongly.
