“To create myself from nothing.”
“There was something transporting about the act of creating something from nothing.”
“If I create from the heart, nearly everything works; if from the head, almost nothing.”
“The image of myself which I try to create in my own mind in order that I may love myself is very different from the image which I try to create in the minds of others in order that they may love me.”
“If you cannot build from nothing, then you'll have to destroy in order to create.”
“(Nothing is) really as good as a meal made 'from scratch' or a picture created with your own hands.”
