I Went Through Withdrawal When

I Had Very Few Friends. We Always Ate Dinner With Our Parents. We Didn't Want To Go Out. American Adolescence Was A Lot Wilder Than I Would Have Felt Comfortable With.

Growing Up, I Thought I Was White. It Didn't Occur To Me I Was Asian-american Until I Was Studying Abroad In Denmark And There Was A Little Bit Of Prejudice.

I Went Through Withdrawal When I Got Out Of Graduate School. It's What You Learn, What You Think. That's All That Counts.

Sometimes You Have To Stop Thinking. Sometimes You Shut Down Completely. I Think That's True In Any Creative Field.

Art Is Very Tricky Because It's What You Do For Yourself. It's Much Harder For Me To Make Those Works Than The Monuments Or The Architecture.
