I don't try and be dark, but there are obviously darker emotions that I want to capture sometimes.

I'm inspired by throwing out any darkness that is inside of me. For me, art cures.

Despite what people might think, I'm not interested in being dark all the time. I'm actually searching for some kind of light, and I'm always very happy when I can achieve that.

By appreciating the darkness when you design the light, you create much more interesting environments that truly enhance our lives.

I've been through some dark times but I've experienced joy too. Now that joy can't be suppressed.

People always tell me my books are so dark; I don't think they're particularly dark. I'm not like that. I'm quite a cheerful soul.

I don't personally see my work as being dark. What interests me is a balance between light and dark.

I still don't love the darkness, though I've learned to smile in it a little bit, now and then.

We've all got darkness inside us. And I've got quite a lot of darkness.

I think good art does come from a dark place.
