- The sight of his LEGO art makes you wish you had stepped on them in your bare feet instead.
- Her lack of imagination is evident: All her drawings on the refrigerator are drawings *of* the refrigerator.
- Wants to be the "New Liberace" — but "without all that macho stuff.."
- Cut off his ear *before* learning to paint.
