| On How to make a Fabulous Painting and Talk About It Elegantly |
| Ivan: "I think in art school, people want you to know what your work is about, so that when you leave, you can keep making that work." Bruce: "And make a business out of it. So you’ll be able to talk about it (your work) elegantly." |
| On The Purpose of Art and How It Is Positioned |
| "I started thinking that the work has to be integrated into the culture, and the fabric of things, so we’re all working with the fabric, we’re all together in this." |
| On The Secret of Success |
| "What is actually happening is that a lot of the things have got hidden by the speed of which information and works are being made.... I do think the secret is to not to have a grey floor with white walls these days.... Do the opposite of everybody else, that’s the key, do the opposite." |
| On The Public |
| INTRODUCING: "Do you think it’s important that the public understand what you’re doing (your art)?" BM: "No, but I have to say, the public, when they look at something good, they get it." |
| Just Do It |
| "You mustn't do what you ought to do. Mustn't do what you should do. Do what you want to do." |
