"The only dream worth having is to dream that you will live while you’re alive and die only when you are dead. To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate was is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget."

'When I was in this centre earlier this year they asked me to do something like that. They said, "Can you draw anything?" And I just couldn't do it. I burst into tears. I was terrified. Because I felt I needed someone to tell me what it was that I should be doing, and I could work towards that. "Draw me a tree" – that's fine. "Draw anything" – I panicked.'

What's the fear there?

'Just... judged. That they were looking for something in particular and I'd give it to them.'
