Remember that every man is a variation of yourself

If you’re alive, you can’t be bored in San Francisco. If you’re not alive, San Francisco will bring you to life.

Be grateful for yourself...be thankful.

The role of art is to make a world which can be inhabited.

In the end, today is forever, yesterday is still today, and tomorrow is already today.

Love doesn't have to be perfect. Even perfect, it is still the best thing there is, for the simple reason that it is the most common and constant truth of all, of all life, all law and order, the very thing which holds everything together, which permits everything to move along in time and be its wonderful or ordinary self.

Chance acquaintances are sometimes the most memorable, for brief friendships have such definite starting and stopping points that they take on a quality of art, of a whole thing, which cannot be broken or spoiled.
