• Nunca debes leer sólo por "disfrutar". Lee para hacerte más inteligente. Menos crítico. Más apto para entender el comportamiento demente de tus amigos, o mejor aún, el tuyo propio. Elige "libros difíciles". En los que tengas que concentrarte mientras lees. Y por el amor de Dios, que nunca te oiga decir: "No puedo leer ficción. Sólo tengo tiempo para la verdad". ¡La ficción es la verdad, tonto! ¿Has oído hablar de la "literatura"? Eso también significa ficción, estúpido.

• I like art that challenges you and makes a lot of people angry because they don't get it. Because they refuse to look at it properly. Rather than open their mind to the possibility of seeing something, they just resist. A lot of people think contemporary art makes them feel stupid. Because they are stupid. They're right. If you have contempt about contemporary art, you are stupid. You can be the most uneducated person in the world and completely appreciate contemporary art, because you see the rebellion. You see that it's trying to change things.
