I had a little bit of resistance to the idea of taking energy away from my work, and the baby comes along and, lo and behold, that's exactly what happens.

I love to exercise my creativity in many ways but as each year of specialization goes by I feel further and further from my other creative selves. I used to be able to see myself doing many things and sometimes I still long for a job that involves less pressure and grappling with people but, as you say, I am one of the lucky ones so I try to just focus on feeling lucky and carry on!

I think it is very useful to know ourselves, but when we start naming and labeling, that is dangerous, that gets problematic. It negates that things are always changing. Besides, it's hard to pin a label onto something that's always moving.

I'm the color me happy girl, Miss live and let live. And when they're out for blood, I always give.

It's just hard to travel in the shadow of regret. In fact, it's so hard that I actually haven't left yet.

One of my rules is: Never TRY to do anything. Just do it.

Those who call the shots are never in the line of fire.
