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

You know the greatest thing is passion, without it what have you got?

All you have to do is take a close look at yourself and you will understand everyone else.

Let frustration fuel inspiration.

If you feel you are in a black hole, don't give up. There's a way out.

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

You live out the confusions until they become clear.

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

I learned that you have to push away the demand of people's expectations by believing in your instincts.

Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say.

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

There is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.
