I think i’m greedy, but i’m not greedy for money – i think that can be a burden – i’m greedy for an exciting life. i want it to be exciting all the time, and i get it, actually. on the other hand, i can find excitement, i admit, in raindrops falling on a puddle and a lot of people wouldn’t. i intend to have it exciting until the day i fall over.

I Think I’m Greedy, But I’m Not

David Hockney
I think i’m greedy, but i’m not greedy for money – i think that can be a burden – i’m greedy for an exciting life. i want it to be exciting all the time, and i get it, actually. on the other hand, i can find excitement, i admit, in raindrops falling on a puddle and a lot of people wouldn’t. i intend to have it exciting until the day i fall over.

Fall Thinking Hands

More From David Hockney

To walk in money through the night crowd, protected by money, lulled by money, dulled by money, the crowd itself a money, the breath money, no least single object anywhere that is not money. money, money everywhere and still not enough! and then no money, or a little money, or less money, or more money but money always money. and if you have money, or you don't have money, it is the money that counts, and money makes money, but what makes money make money?
Money Night Crowds
The leaves are falling, falling as from way off, as though far gardens withered in the skies; they are falling with denying gestures. and in the nights the heavy earth is falling from all the stars down into loneliness. we all are falling. this hand falls. and look at others: it is in them all. and yet there is one who holds this falling endlessly gently in his hands.
Stars Loneliness Fall
I can get excitement watching rain on a puddle. and then i paint it. now, i admit, there are not too many people who would find that exciting. but i would. and i want life thrilling and rich. and it is. i make sure it is.
Rain People Puddles
The leaves are falling, falling as if from far up,as if orchards were dying high in space.each leaf falls as if it were motioning "no."and tonight the heavy earth is fallingaway from all other stars in the loneliness.we're all falling. this hand here is falling.and look at the other one. it's in them all.and yet there is someone, whose handsinfinitely calm, holding up all this falling.

I think i’m greedy, but i’m not greedy for money - i think that can be a burden - i’m greedy for an exciting life.
Thinking Greedy Burden
I didn't intend. the word "intend" is the wrong word for what i do. it's just that it's something you do, and you can't not do. if you want to do it, and you don't intend to, you do it anyway. the word "intend" is wrong. the word "pressure" is right. it's like any art form.
