I worked as a secretary, a waitress and a dance teacher - all in high school.
Music was a way of rebelling against the whole rah-rah high school thing.
My mom sang in high school choir and so did my father.
I hated high school. It was a prison.
High school was so much fun, and it wasn't a wreck at all.
In high school and college all my friends and my brother wrestled.

Mediocre art is far worse than bad art. Bad art does not waste our time.
Art is not supposed to change the world, to change practical things, but to change perceptions. Art can change the way we see the world. Art can create an analogy.
Thought is more important than art. To revere art and have no understanding of the process that forces it into existence, is finally not even to understand what art is.

I like art history and art criticism. Leo Steinberg has always been my favorite. He's very original, very accurate and acute.
I was brought up on art. My father thought I had a great hand at art and sent me to art school. But he did not want me to become a photographer.
The recognition of the art that informs all pure science need not mean the abandonment for it of all present art, rather it will mean the completion of the transformation of art that has already begun.
