My mother is very active and involved with the tribe, so I can't help but be involved, too. I go back when I can to teach music classes with middle-school students and hopefully serve as a role model.
More Quotes from Christopher Moore:
I came back to San Francisco and spent more time in the neighborhoods like Chinatown and the Mission that I hadn't been in much before. I tried to get a feel for all parts of the city, so when I wrote the book, the neighborhoods would be like characters. There are scenes where all Charlie does is walk through neighborhoods, and it's like an Impressionist painting.Christopher Moore
Our artists are very good technicians. They have sensibility and artistic balance. But quite often they lack in creation. I have one artist here in my studio in New York. She's a good painter, but she has problems of creating her own stuff, of inventing. She can copy from a postcard, but when she has to do other things she has a tough time. She knows it. Not everybody can do great things.
Christopher Moore
Collectors say, 'I hate reproductions. It's awful. Why would anybody do that,' ... That's what they say officially. But behind the scenes they use our copies. On the walls they have our copies. All their paintings are in vaults.
Christopher Moore
In the movie, the painting is supposed to be worth 100 million. No painting is worth 100 million. But for the movie, 100 million is a number that any person can understand as expensive. If you say 50 million nowadays, it's not enough.

The value of the work we do is the value we give to it.

I don't expect you to have any leniency or even believe a word I say. I have to stop lying to myself.
