A talent grows by being used, and withers if it is not used.

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

It's not your job to be likable. It's your job to be yourself. Someone will like you anyway.

I have stood on a mountain of no's for one yes.

There are things that are not sayable. That's why we have art.

What a lovely surprise to finally discover how unlonely being alone can be.

Love is really... a recognition of another person’s integrity and truth.

You live out the confusions until they become clear.

The transformation of the heart is a wondrous thing, no matter how you land there.

It’s better to look ahead and prepare, than to look back and regret.

If you feel you are in a black hole, don't give up. There's a way out.
