"For me (meaning in life) has something to do with the concept of 

independence or not allowing myself to be affected by other larger forces. One thing that matters (in life)...is...I think it is very important that human beings do understand themselves in some kind of (autonomous) way.  

I think it is important for people to understand themselves as not 

limited by things, like what other people think or by tradition or by 

morality, or by religious belief, or even by what is considered 

scientific law or reality. It opens up the possibility for human 

beings...to escape and see beyond the limits of what (you think) is 

possible. By shooting for the impossible you actually increase the size of what actually is possible. Overwhelming concept for the passion of beauty...in terms of outcome...everybody dies...instead of winning the race or game, it is much more fruitful to think of life as art...just making something beautiful. To me that is a sense of what makes life worth living. That's enough for me."
