I used to tell people my father was a plumber, because that would mean we had a normal life.

When I was little, I wanted to be a civil engineer. Not a ballerina, not a doctor, a civil engineer. I was such a nerd.

I wanted to be a meteorologist. I wanted to be a marine biologist.

All I wanted was to be a university teacher.

One of my aims was to be paid as well as a plumber. Plumber was better-paid than any performance artist who was always doing this for free. It is so important to make a good living from art. You know, John Cage, until he was 60, he couldn't pay electricity.

I wanted to be a decorator. I wanted to interior design homes and do everything myself.

I wanted to be a teacher.
