David Hockney

"Art has to move you and design does not, unless it's a good design for a bus."

"What I didn't know was I was deeply attracted to the big space."

"What an artist is trying to do for people is bring them closer to something, because of course art is about sharing. You wouldn't be an artist unless you wanted to share an experience, a thought."

"The moment you cheat for the sake of beauty, you know you're an artist."

"I think I’m greedy, but I’m not greedy for money - I think that can be a burden - I’m greedy for an exciting life."
