To boldly go where few women have gone before" aptly describes the pioneering exhibit "Inside the World of the Woman Outsider:
"An artist is someone who produces things that people don't need to have but that he - for some reason - thinks would be a good idea to give them."
"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind."
"At the age of eleven or thereabouts women acquire a poise and an ability to handle difficult situations which a man, if he is lucky, manages to achieve somewhere in the later seventies."
"Look, I don't want to wax philosophic, but I will say that if you're alive you've got to flap your arms and legs, you've got to jump around a lot, for life is the very opposite of death, and therefore you must at very least think noisy and colorfully, or you're not alive."
“Don’t worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any good, you’ll have to ram them down people’s throats.”
"A talent is formed in stillness, a character in the world's torrent."
“If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is "thank you," it will be enough.”
“A nice definition of an awakened person: a person who no longer marches to the drums of society, a person who dances to the tune of the music that springs up from within.”
“Shedding one's skin. The snake that cannot shed its skin perishes. So do the spirits who are prevented from changing their opinions; they cease to be spirit.”
"One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.”
"If you ask me what I have come to do in this world, I who am an artist, I will reply: I am here to live my life out loud."
"I don't believe people are looking for the meaning of life
as much as they are looking for the experience of being
alive."
"For me, insanity is super sanity. The normal is psychotic. Normal means lack of imagination, lack of creativity."
"The only thing I know is that I do art because I need to, and I create whatever passes through my head without any other consideration."
