“An idea is something you have; an ideology is something that has you”

“• Judge less–or at least later.• Give new ideas and images a chance.• Understand that everyone has his own truth or her own.• Remember: you are not married to any belief, opinion, or ideology.• Expect to discover something delicious every day. (260)”

“Ideology knows the answer before the question has been asked.Principles are something different: a set of values that have to be adapted to circumstances but not compromised away.”

“You even consider the idea of leving with a thing posessed. You could do it. You have to do something. You have to do someone.”

“Your idea doesn't have to be big. It just has to be yours alone. The more the idea is yours alone, the more freedom you have to do something really amazing. The more amazing, the more people will click with your idea. The more people click with your idea, the more it will change the world.”

“I haven't the slightest idea what art is, but to be a painter is something of which you have to prove.”
