Chance favors only the prepared mind.

I can't give you a recipe for success, but I can give you a recipe for failure: try to please everybody.

I believe that one defines oneself by reinvention… To be yourself. To cut yourself out of stone.

Everything that truly makes us happy is quite simple: love, sex, and food!

Within you there is a stillness and a sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time.

Nothing is ever really lost to us as long as we remember it.

Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.
