“There are two sides to me. I like very perfect things, for instance I would like to live in a very grand place. But as in painting you make such a mess. I prefer to live in a mess with the memories and the damage left with one. I think we all have this double side to us. One likes disorder and one likes order. We have to battle for order.”larot.”
