Art is a spiritual function of man, which aims at freeing him from life's chaos.

Tolerance, like any aspect of peace, is forever a work in progress.

Injustice makes the rules, and courage breaks them.

Find the thing you do well and do it again and again for the rest of your life.

The older I get, the greater power I seem to have to help the world.

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

We are all born worthy. Worthy of love, worthy of success.

Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.

All art is autobiographical; the pearl is the oyster’s autobiography.

Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage.

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

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