To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest.

Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.

Everything that truly makes us happy is quite simple: love, sex, and food!

Falsehood is so easy, truth so difficult.

A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved.

Don’t be afraid to be confused. Try to remain permanently confused. Anything is possible.

Failure is a greater teacher than success. Listen, learn, go on.

The heart is not like a box that gets filled up; it expands in size the more you love.

In art and dream may you proceed with abandon. In life may you proceed with balance and stealth.

Often when you think you’re at the end of something, you’re at the beginning of something else.

You make your life meaningful by applying meaning to it.

You can't learn style. Style, I think, is in your DNA.
