Christian Boltanski:

“The good artists are usually the very young or the very old. The ones who are very young are so stupid that they have no fear. And when they are very old they aren’t afraid any more. In the meantime, you are always, always, afraid.”

“The big problem when you’re an artist is that the times of creation don’t come often. Most of the time I stay here in my studio and groan, and after that I go to my room, look at the TV.”

“I want to think dangerous and noble things.
I want to be light and frolicsome.
I want to be improbable, beautiful and afraid of nothing;
as though I had wings.”
