Here I am as a human being...how can I express myself, totally and completely?

Evaluation by others is not a guide for me.

Not being tense but ready. Not thinking but not dreaming. Not being set but flexible. Liberation from the uneasy sense of confinement. It is being wholly and quietly alive, aware and alert, ready for whatever may come.

Be a practical dreamer backed by action.

To live is to express, and to express you have to create. Creation is never merely repetition. To live is to express oneself freely in creation.

It is not a shame to be knocked down by other people. The important thing is to ask when you're being knocked down, 'Why am I being knocked down?' If a person can reflect in this way, then there is hope for this person.

The aim of art is to project an inner vision into the world.
