“It's really important to do everything that you possibly can to stay true to yourself.”

“True art was based upon despair, and the important thing was to make yourself and those around you as miserable as possible.”

“Dreams really do come true if you point yourself in their direction”

“A psychologist said to me, there are only two important questions you have to ask yourself. What do you really feel? And, what do you really want? If you can answer those two, you probably can leave your neuroses behind you.”

“Sometimes it's more important to seize the chance and do what you can even knowing that it won't likely account for everything, that it is to do nothing.”

“But just then, for that fraction of time, it seems as though all things are possible. You can look across the limitations of your own life, and see that they are really nothing. In that moment when time stops, it is as though you know you could undertake any venture, complete it and come back to yourself, to find the world unchanged, and everything just as you left it a moment before. And it's as though knowing that everything is possible, suddenly nothing is necessary.”
