Changing my body has given me the ability to do all these amazing things that I never in a million years imagined I could do.
I've traveled all over the country for years speaking in churches, teaching the Ten Commandments. It's amazing if 2 percent of any congregation knows the Ten Commandments.
I was asked to do a reading of 'G.B.F.' and I loved the script. I thought it was one of the most amazing things I'd read, but it took a year to get a green light for production.
When you're doing the traditional musicals, singing songs that are 40 and 50 years old, you realize there's a reason why those musicals are hits. These are amazing songs!
I don't think architecture is radical. How can something that takes years and costs millions be radical?
Architecture is a living thing. If I want to leave something to the future, it has to be able to change - but retain something of the ethos that we built up over 50 years.
Of late years (perhaps as a result of our political changes) art has borrowed from history more than ever.
My parents weren't artistic, but I was always surrounded by beautiful things. And Mexico is a country which has experienced thousands of years of art and culture.
At the University of Maryland, my first year I started off planning to major in art because I was interested in theatre design, stage design or television design.
In the last 20 years of collecting contemporary African art, I have been bombarded by incredible shapes and colors that I now want to translate into clothes.
I've never tried to learn the art of acting. I have been in the business for years but I still can't tell what acting is or how it's done.
I'm also interested in creating a lasting legacy for collectors because bronze will last for thousands of years so I'm not really selling the art to this particular collector but it is being passed on.
The idea of avant-garde art is a very suspicious thing to me, the idea that poetry is new and it keeps being new the way Chevrolets every year are new.
When I got into the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, a doctor told me to give up the course as I'd be totally deaf within a couple of years. But I refused to give in.
Conceptual art became the liberating idea that gave the art of the next 40 years its real impetus.
Yes, it was love at first sight. I feel that after all these years, I have finally found my soul mate.
I think we take it for granted that if you are with your husband after 30 years, then he is the love of your life.
There are many ways to kill someone. I prefer laughter, and doing it slowly, over the course of 70 years or so.
My many years of living have not made the actions of teenage boys any less enigmatic.
A genius. A criminal mastermind. A millionaire. And he is only twelve years old.
I'm saying I'm in love with you! I've been in love with you this whole bleeding year!
