I am always learning.

If I am more alive because love burns and chars me, as a fire, given wood or wind, feels new elation, it's that he who lays me low is my salvation, and invigorates the more, the more he scars me.

I am a poor man and of little worth, who is laboring in that art that God has given me in order to extend my life as long as possible.

So take care of your life and take notice and be observant, for the number of widows is always far greater than the number of widowers.

I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.

Lord, make me see thy glory in every place.

No one has mastery, Before he is at the end, Of his art and his life.
