I take great care of myself by carefully shutting myself away.
The great isn't something accidental; it must be willed.
No blue without yellow and without orange, and if you do blue, then do yellow and orange as well, surely.
The thing has already taken form in my mind before I start it. The first attempts are absolutely unbearable. I say this because I want you to know that if you see something worthwhile in what I am doing, it is not by accident but because of real direction and purpose.
... life is too short to do the whole.
Do not quench your inspiration and your imagination; do not become the slave of your model.
