One thing I like about Zen. It doesn't believe in achievement.

Any material may be used but the theme is the same and the response is the same for all artwork... we all have the same concern, but the artist must know exactly what the experience is. He must pursue the truth relentlessly.

I'm very careful not to have ideas, because they're inaccurate.

The Minimalists are idealist. They want to minimize themselves in favor of the ideal... But I just can't. You see, my paintings are not cool.

My paintings are certainly nonobjective. They're just horizontal lines.
