Any sort of pretension induces mediocrity in art and life alike.

Genius is another word for magic, and the whole point of magic is that it is inexplicable.

If I have learnt anything, it is that life forms no logical patterns. It is haphazard and full of beauties which I try to catch as they fly by, for who knows whether any of them will ever return?

The one important thing I have learned over the years is the difference between taking one's work seriously and taking one's self seriously. The first is imperative and the second is disastrous.
