“[Speaking to a group of wealthy New Yorkers]

A million years ago, the cave man, without tools, with small brain, and with nothing but the strength of his body, managed to feed his wife and children, so that through him the race survived. You on the other hand, armed with all the modern means of production, multiplying the productive capacity of the cave man a million times — you are incompetents and muddlers, you are unable to secure to millions even the paltry amount of bread that would sustain their physical life. You have mismanaged the world, and it shall be taken from you. ”
― Jack London

“Much later on, I read a statement of Bruce Nauman's: “Art is a matter of life and death.” It sounds melodramatic, but it's so true. This was exactly how it was for me”
― Marina Abramović, Walk Through Walls: A Memoir

“In “Shadow of a Doubt,” I was trying to describe the connection you feel when your eyes meet another person’s. You project all kinds of things on those eyes, feel them seeing into and past you, sometimes feel the sex behind them too.”
― Kim Gordon, Girl in a Band

“For me performing has a lot to do with being fearless.”
― Kim Gordon, Girl in a Band
