You'll never find a rainbow if you're looking down.

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

The first time you do something only happens once.

Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.

Being successful doesn't mean anything in and of itself. It just means that you're successful.

Injustice makes the rules, and courage breaks them.

There’s nothing so kingly as kindness, and nothing so royal as truth.

There are things that are not sayable. That's why we have art.

Vulnerability is like a connector... it connects you to the rest of the world.

I never practice, I always play.

The shoe that fits one person pinches another; there is no recipe for living that suits all cases.

It is not a daily increase, but a daily decrease. Hack away at the inessentials.
