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

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

I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving.

You can't lead the people if you don't love the people. You can't save the people, if you don't serve the people.

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

It isn't a sadness, but a joy, that we don't do the same things for the length of our lives.

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

I would rather walk with a friend in the dark than walk alone in the light.
