''You want to be noticed. You want to stand out and be different, especially if you are ambitious and you move to New York City.

In many ways, being an artist is more competitive and involves more ambition than being a stockbroker, or being in advertising. It's not a quest for money. It's a quest for fame, and fame is something I always wanted.

If you're an artist who spent your life flipping through art books, and going through museums, and looking at the immortals, you want the same thing for yourself.''
