I love irony.

Irony is a great tool to deal with things. It's an intellectualization, a way to go above things, which can work.

There are elements of irony in my work, of course.

Irony is the form of paradox. Paradox is what is good and great at the same time.

Irony is the gaiety of reflection and the joy of wisdom.

I don't embrace irony, but I do think it's a pre-existing condition; we manage it as best we can.

The great thing about irony is that it splits things apart, gets up above them so we can see the flaws and hypocrisies and duplicates.

A vast percentage of the human race is literally not wired neurologically to get irony. Well more than half of humanity takes life at face value, which is to me terrifying.

Irony is a clear consciousness of an eternal agility, of the infinitely abundant chaos.

In a world where irony reigns, where you have to separate, protect and laugh at anything that is honest or has an emotional charge, I bet for catharsis. I like to invest emotionally in things. And catharsis, when it touches the emotional vein, can open the doors of even those who protect themselves.
