A good painting to me has always been like a friend. It keeps me company, comforts and inspires.

Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men.

From every ruin, life springs up again.

If one is lucky, a solitary fantasy can totally transform one million realities.

“You come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.”

Sometimes you have to let go to see if there was anything worth holding on to.

Your true success in life begins only when you make the commitment to become excellent at what you do.
