Our real blessings often appear to us in the shape of pains, losses, and disappointments.

No amount of skillful invention can replace the essential element of imagination.

Your path is at your feet whether you realize it or not.

Originality thrives in seclusion free of outside influences beating upon us to cripple the creative mind.

Everything in nature invites us constantly to be what we are.

Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.

Humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less.

Take a canvas. Put a mark on it. Put another mark on it.

Do one thing every day that scares you.

To lead people, walk behind them.

I would rather walk with a friend in the dark than walk alone in the light.

In all our searching, the only thing we’ve found that makes the emptiness bearable is each other.
