Sometimes you just have to say, “...I don't know what we are doing, let's just go and see what happens.” You have to embrace the experience itself, so that things you didn't intend to happen can make your work more authentic. And you have to hope that it works.

We wish that we could take magic drugs, play around all day, read, and do nothing strenuous, and be the smartest, happiest people in the world. The truth is, it's all about sweat.

Maybe there's some unquenchable question that I keep asking the universe that I can't get an answer to.

We wouldn't be artists, writers, painters, musicians, if we weren't sensitive.

Keeping perspective and being happy and being energetic and being creative - that's all tied to being healthy.

I know that is absolutely true for people when they are young - you don't want to be alive if the things that you love in your life aren't there.

All the great things that I get to be curious about, see, and experience because I'm sensitive to the world, it also opens up these areas where there's a lot of pain and suffering. You're just aware, aware, aware.
