I admire the courage and self-reliance it takes to start your own business and make it succeed.

I'm very inspired by nature - you could say Mother Nature. I look at things around me and get all kinds of inspiration daily.

Life is too complicated not to be orderly.

Broaden yourself. You don't have to focus when you're 20. I think the broader you are, the better it is. Later you can focus on your real interests and ideas. The ultimate goal is to be an interesting, useful, wholesome person. If you're successful on top of that, then you're way ahead of everybody.

If you learn something new every day, you can teach something new every day

For me it's a dedication to your real interests. It's an ability to be open-minded. Without an open-minded mind, you can never be a great success. The great artists have been open-minded, even though they may seem, like Picasso, to be very directed, you can be directed and open-minded at the same time. I think you have to be really intensely serious about your work, but not so serious that you can't see the lightness that may also involve your life. You have to have that lightness too. You have to not be so heavy-handed and so ostentatious. It's very important not to be.

The last place I would ever want to go is prison.
