Live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds.

Good writers touch life often.

A book has got to smell. You have to hold it in your hands and pray to it.

So while our art cannot, as we wish it could, save us from wars, privation, envy, greed, old age, or death, it can revitalize us amidst it all.

Self-consciousness is the enemy of all art, be it acting, writing, painting, or living itself, which is the greatest art of all.

I want your loves to be multiple. I don't want you to be a snob about anything. Anything you love, you do it.

We need not to be let alone. We need to be really bothered once in a while.
