Life is a collection of moments. Mindfulness is beautification of the moments.

Every noble work is at first impossible.

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

Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.

There will always be someone who can't see your worth. Don't let it be you.

The great tragedy of life is not that men perish, but that they cease to love.

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

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

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

The greatest reward of righteousness is peace of mind.

Happiness is not made by what we own. It is what we share.

It is not enough to know your craft — you have to have feeling.
