"I think it helps to be neurotic. Neurotic people always end up being in the arts. If your kid fits in while in high school they’re going to be a dull adult. I still see a few people I went to high school with, but the other ones, when they come up to me I say: “I’m sorry, I took LSD, I don’t remember you.” It works, because then they aren’t offended personally. It’s really just manners."
John Waters - the British weekend papers' favourite art fag by far - in The Daily Telegraph on 10 Things Every Role Model Needs.
Mr Waters is talking at the Hay Festival this evening.
