I appreciate people who try and use language in an interesting way.

I can use movie as a language. Not only could it send a good message, I could let people know about my thinking and how I see the world, how I see the colour, how I see the music, how I see everything.

Language is a social art.

I was always influenced by language.

My use of language is part and parcel of my message.

I'm very interested in language because it reflects our obsessions and ways of conceptualising the world.

I love making up visual works of art in language. I get to be an artist without actually being an artist in that sense.

In our generation, everybody told us that it's really important and it's nice to be able to speak a lot of languages. It's an art, too. It really impresses me, people who speak, like, seven languages. I admire them so much, so I began with English, and then Spanish and maybe Portuguese.

I think I make better use of language and imagery than when I started out.

Expressing myself through language was always something that I had had to learn to do more so than others.
