If we learn the art of yielding what must be yielded to the changing present, we can save the best of the past.
I think an art collection is a lot like a diary. Your taste evolves with time. I try to never sell anything, because it's part of my journey.
I'm learning with my mom how to cook more Spanish food. I'm trying to make a good paella, but that's a real art.
Well, I also love magic, which is, you know, different than showmanship. Magic's an art where you use slight of hand or illusion to create wonder.
It seems almost backwards to me that my music seems the more emotional outlet, and the art stuff seems more about ideas.
One wants to think that - and this is really a stupid thought - that through your art or whatever you do as an actor you can actually affect someone else's lives and thoughts or whatever.
You don't need tons of money to create art. You do need tons of money to be a part of show business. They are two different things.
I kind of wonder if creativity is all morphing into one big thing that's not even art, but something universal and bigger.
It's sort of a law of the art world: The stuff that grows in importance is only the stuff you bought because it wowed you.
I guess art itself is insane. Its actual function is rarely clear, and yet people give their hearts and souls and lives to it, and have for all of history.
I was really trying to sell to people who hate jazz: to make a case for the art form as youthful and energetic, not the sort of rarified intellectual activity it's painted as.

My life has always somehow been played out in a minor key, unresolved. Art somehow resolves things for me.
I always feel like the art's there and I just see it, so it's not really a lot of work.
The difference between art about death and actual death is that one's a celebration and the other's a dull fact.
My passion for 'Star Trek' is actually rooted in my love of television and the art of franchise and a premise designed to stick people together that have to figure out what to do.
Art is all about the experience. I could say I don't really relate to opera, but then you watch Placido Domingo, and you go, 'Blimey, look at that.'
I'm interested in how artists and writers do this, using art as therapy. Escaping into the worlds we create. We're all victims and few of us are truly free.
I can't bear art that you can walk round and admire. A book should be either a bandit or a rebel or a man in the crowd.
For me, being in front of a camera is a matter of practicing and refining your art. I think, if you're telling a story worth telling, it's worth investing the time into developing.
The funny thing is musicians often love to go to see visual art because you've got all these pictures to turn into metaphors.
