One day in retrospect the years of struggle will strike you as the most beautiful.

If you need something from somebody, always give that person a way to hand it to you.

If you want to look good in front of thousands, you have to outwork thousands in front of nobody.

I found my place when I stopped looking for it.

Forgiveness … is a gift of high value. Yet its cost is nothing.

I can't give you a recipe for success, but I can give you a recipe for failure: try to please everybody.

Art is about finding creativity in the gutter next to you.

Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it.

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

I believe that one defines oneself by reinvention… To be yourself. To cut yourself out of stone.

To go wrong in one's own way is better than to go right in someone else's.

Maybe who we are isn't so much about what we do, but rather what we're capable of when we least expect it.
