I suggest that the great art belongs to all people, all the time--that indeed it is made for the people, by the people, to the people.

Age is nothing; waking up is everything.

Be wary when a naked person offers you his shirt

My life has been long, and believing that life loves the liver of it, I have dared to try many things, sometimes trembling, but daring still.

I believe in living a poetic life, an art full life. Everything we do from the way we raise our children to the way we welcome our friends is part of a large canvas we are creating.

The love of the family, the love of one person can heal. It heals the scars left by a larger society. A massive, powerful society.

I long for the time when all human history is taught as one history, because it really is.
