The gratification comes in the doing, not in the results.

Skill and confidence are an unconquered army.

Every noble work is at first impossible.

Enthusiasm is the great hill-climber.

The truth will set you free. But not until it is finished with you.

What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.

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

Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.
