My work is more driven by the creative word. It’s immersed in other writing and printed work, rather than drawn so much from life or past experience.” – Pettibon
“I’m not God, but I’m working within my own means as an artist and a person, and I possibly have more power than God does, in whatever form he has, if he exists, because I can work without the overarching ambition of wanting to rule over everything. I can work just for the heck of it.” – Pettibon
“I really don’t see any influence of my work on any artists. But I do think I’ve had an influence on drawings’ being shown. I’ve had an influence on the economics of it.” – Pettibon
