The motivation of all artists is 'Look at me, Mum'.
~ Sebastian Horsley
I can count all the lovers I've had on one hand...if I'm holding a calculator.

I didn't want to tell Mother I worked as a journalist. She thought I was a prostitute. Locking yourself in a room and inventing characters and conversations which do not exit is no way for a grown man to behave.
We can't all be stars because someone has to sit on the curb and clap as I go by.
Unhappiness lies in that gap between our talents and our expectations.
Being well-dressed gives a feeling of inward tranquility which psychoanalysis is powerless to bestow.
I like to remind myself that every morning I'm making a choice to live.
