More From Damien Hirst

A dialogue is very important. it is a form of communication in which question and answer continue till a question is left without an answer. thus the question is suspended between the two persons involved in this answer and question. it is like a bud with untouched blossoms . . . if the question is left totally untouched by thought, it then has its own answer because the questioner and answerer, as persons, have disappeared. this is a form of dialogue in which investigation reaches a certain point of intensity and depth, which then has a quality that thought can never reach.
Communication Two Important
Staring and staring into the mirror, it sees many faces within its face - the face of the child, the boy, the young man, the not-so-young man - all present still, preserved like fossils on superimposed layers, and, like fossils, dead. their message to this live dying creature is: look at us - we have died - what is there to be afraid of? it answers them: but that happened so gradually, so easily. i'm afraid of being rushed.

Do not ask the stones or the trees how to live, they can not tell you ; they do not have tongues; do not ask the wise man how to live for, if he knows , he will know he cannot tell you; if you would learn how to live , do not ask the question; its answer is not in the question but in the answer, which is not in words; do not ask how to live, but, instead, proceed to do so.

A picture can be an answer as well as a question but if you can't answer your question try to question your question... there can be questions without answers but no answers without questions.
Trying Answers Wells
The answer is never the answer. what's really interesting is the mystery. if you seek the mystery instead of the answer, you'll always be seeking. i've never seen anybody really find the answer, but they think they have. so they stop thinking. but the job is to seek mystery, evoke mystery, plant a garden in which strange plants grow and mysteries bloom. the need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer.

I'm not sure if i could tell the difference—between just staring into space and thinking. we're usually thinking all the time, aren't we? not that we live in order to think, but the opposite isn't true either—that we think in order to live. i believe, contrary to descartes, that we sometimes think in order not to be. staring into space might unintentionally have the opposite effect.

Believe Numbers People
I originated a remark many years ago that i think has been copied more than any little thing that i've ever said, and i used it in the follies of 1922. i said america has a unique record. we never lost a war and we never won a conference in our lives. i believe that we could without any degree of egotism, single-handed lick any nation in the world. but we can't confer with costa rica and come home with our shirts on.
