Reality is everything, and dreaming is the same.

Don’t be nervous. Work calmly, joyously, recklessly on whatever is in hand.

Art is the one place we all turn to for solace.

Champions keep playing until they get it right.

Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live.

We make out of the quarrel with others, rhetoric, but of the quarrel with ourselves, poetry.

My heart is unlimited in the amount of love, but it is limited in the passion and commitment.
