I don't like anybody to be angry with me. I'd rather have friends.

It's not rage that drives me, it's competition.

Rage is exciting, but leaves me confused and exhausted.

Everybody has to write out of rage sometimes.

I wouldn't be honest if I told you that in some moment of my life I had a lot of rage - probably hate - I'm not sure of hate, but rage. But you know what happens is that then you realize you cannot do to others what you think nobody has to do to anybody. Life is important for me and not any kind of life, quality too of life.

Never go to bed angry, stay up and fight.

If the night's right and the people are right, of course I want to be out, I want to be socializing. I don't want to be in my studio 24 hours a day for the whole rest of my life.

I think rage is so ugly.

I don't particularly like being angry about stuff. I'd rather hang out with my daughter and write my little books.

I'm a bit of an expert on anger, having suffered from it all through my youth, when I was both brunt and font. It's certainly the most miserable state to be in but it's also tremendously gratifying, really - rage feels justified.
