Romantic love was invented to manipulate women

Turn soft and lovely anytime you have the chance.

A positive attitude means all the difference in the world.

I get up about four times a night and go back to sleep, or not. Then I swill tea around 8 a.m. I answer e-mail, while I stall thinking about whatever scares me.

It's good to be employable, but I hope to show the truth. The paintings seem true because nobody wants me to do them.

A little knowledge can go a long way.

On the worst days, I don't feel like an artist.
