Those who dislike fantasy are very often equally bored or repelled by science. They don't like either hobbits, or quasars; they don't feel at home with them; they don't want complexities, remoteness. If there is any such connection, I'll bet that it is basically an aesthetic one
My favorite color is black.
I don't wish to sound chauvinistic, but I feel the female body is beautiful to look at, more so than a male's.
I've seen other actresses refuse to be ugly. Even if the story line calls for it or the character calls for it, they just can't go there for vanity's sake, and they don't want to be perceived in an ugly way. I was like, 'Nah, I wanna go for this.'
But you have to understand, my beard is so nasty. I mean, it's the only beard in the history of Western civilization that makes Bob Dylan's beard look good.
Most of the art I have is more on the beautiful side than the violent or disturbing side.
I object to the hegemony of form in contemporary architecture. We have very advanced technological tools, but ultimately, we create buildings exactly like we used to before: We send the drawings to an engineer and let him struggle with figuring out how to build it.
If you like how people look when they're all covered in tattoos, then you should be covered in tattoos.
Black is not sad. Bright colours are what depress me. They're so... empty. Black is poetic. How do you imagine a poet? In a bright yellow jacket? Probably not.
I discovered that I never really used Helvetica but I like to look at it. I like the VW beetle, too, although I've never driven one.
Jewelry is fine on some guys, but it's not for me.
I do not much care for nature, and believe that flowers belong in vases rather than loose and untidy on the ground.
I don't like the idea of a singer-songwriter record. I don't picture myself that way, and it's not my favorite sort of look, I guess. It's really just an aesthetic thing.
Sometimes, I record rough patches of tunes and take them to directors. They choose to retain my voice. Personally, I don't like my voice, and never want to record.
Design is a very personal thing. It's like art. Your personal choice plays a big role.
Classic art was the art of necessity: modern romantic art bears the stamp of caprice and chance.
Here's the thing that people don't understand: I don't really care. I've never been a careerist. It's not a strategy. I react to certain characters and story lines and specific mode of filmmaking.
My joke is a picture of David Bowie on his balcony in the '70s in a suit in Paris, and unless that's you, I'm not interested. There are very few aesthetic types that I have, and people who look like that are not always necessarily good for me.
His friends said, "Why do you have that ugly thing hanging there?" and Bull said, "I like it because it's ugly." All his life was in that line.
I don't listen to film music at all. I don't want to be influenced.
I'm super particular with my music.
The camera can be lenient; it is can also expert at being cruel. But its cruelty only produces another kind of beauty, according to the surrealist preferences which rule photographic taste.
We are all born bonded to nature; that's why we put depictions of flowers and forests, rather than bulldozers or log piles, on our walls.
Talent is talent, but fashion is separate, and it shouldn't be used to judge me as a singer.
No, I never did hats. I didn't - never felt they were so becoming to me.
