I had the most reversed education possible. Every parent wants their son to be a businessman respectable - me it was the opposite. When I had an artist career my mum was like 'Oh finally I'm proud of you!'

The buildings that I build very often have a dreamlike reality. I don't mean by that they have a fantasy quality at all in fact quite the reverse. They contain in some degree the ingredients that give dreams their power... stuff that's very close to us.

It's good for everyone to understand that they are to love their enemies simply because your enemies show you things about yourself you need to change. So in actuality enemies are friends in reverse.

Have you heard about the Irishman who reversed into a car boot sale and sold the engine?

As technology advances it reverses the characteristics of every situation again and again. The age of automation is going to be the age of 'do it yourself.'
