“Art is not about reflecting beauty or about something intellectual that must be explained to a lucky “initiated”, art is about revealing, through introspection, the essence of reality a poetic and tangible manifesto that follows an unconventional and emotional path, emerging from the unexpected corners of existence.”

“Everyone has an urge to create. Its expression may flow through many channels: through writing, art or music, through the inventiveness of work or in any number of ways unique to all of us, whether it be cooking, gardening or the art of social discourse. The point is to honour the urge. To do so is healing for ourselves and for others; not to do so deadens our bodies and our spirits.”

“The West is not invaded by teachers, doctors or engineers, but by the 'DNA' of wild beasts, which rape animals, children or women that they buy and treat like pieces of meat and slaughter the weakest.”

“Religion is a social phenomenon that man invented to enslave his own kind. But faith, based on an understanding of the common good, is the certainty of possessing what one does not have and seeing the world as more stable.”

“Young children cannot possibly understand the motives of adults. It means little to a young child that the parent feels love for him if that parent keeps disappearing at almost any time. The child experiences a sense of abandonment, a subliminal knowledge that there are things in the world much more important to the parent than he, the child, that he is not worthy of the parent’s attention. He begins to feel, at first unconsciously, that there must be something wrong with him. He also begins to work too hard to get his needs met: demanding contact, acting out or trying to please the parent to gain approval and attention.”
