In art as in love, instinct is enough.

Attention is a moral act: It creates, brings aspects of things into being.

Judge each day not by the harvest you reap but by the seeds you plant.

Human beings must always be on the watch for the coming of wonders.

We cannot be more sensitive to pleasure without being more sensitive to pain.

You mustn't confuse a single failure with a final defeat.

Love... is the honoring of others in a way that grants them the grace of their own autonomy.

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

You make your life meaningful by applying meaning to it.

It isn't just talent. You have to have something else. You have to have a kind of nerve.

Act as if someone just said there’s no reason to be afraid.

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