There is a right physical size for every idea.

You must always be open to your luck. You cannot force it, but you can recognize it.

The secret of life is to have a task, something you devote your entire life to, something you bring everything to, every minute of the day for the rest of your life. And the most important thing is, it must be something you cannot possibly do.

A piece of sculpture can have a hole through it and not be weakened if the hole is of a studied size, shape, and direction.

Now I really make the little idea from clay, and I hold it in my hand. I can turn it, look at it from underneath, see it from one view, hold it against the sky, imagine it any size I like, and really be in control almost like God creating something.

I think, what has this day brought me, and what have I given it?

Art is to make our lives richer and fuller.
