«We are all artists in everything we do. Art is creating; it is our link that makes us like god. All you have to do is look at any form of nature to know that god was the greatest artist of all. He gives us beauty in his creations to inspire us to find the artists inside of us. Art isn?t just about painting or sculpture. It is in everything from how you organize your life to how communicate with the world.»
«We are all artists creating every single second of our lives whether it be good or bad.»
«We cannot be sure of having something to live for unless we are willing to die for it.»
«We have been given a gift that is really, really precious. It?s simple. It isn?t going to get us anything. It isn?t there to augment anything. It?s there for us to be able to experience something that is within ourselves. It is not there to change our religions, our practices, our daily lives. But it is only there for one reason, for one reason alone. Simple happiness. Simple joy.»
«We do not own this place, we are just passengers»
«We may live for a hundred years, but not one moment of these hundred years can be returned, not even if we are prepared to pay millions of dollars. We cannot add a moment, nor can we get a moment back. If time is money, we should just consider how much money we have lost.»

«We are not special. We are not crap or trash, either. We just are. We just are, and what happens just happens.»
«We all experience many freakish and unexpected events - you have to be open to suffering a little. The philosopher Schopenhauer talked about how out of the randomness, there is an apparent intention in the fate of an individual that can be glimpsed later on. When you are an old guy, you can look back, and maybe this rambling life has some through-line. Others can see it better sometimes. But when you glimpse it yourself, you see it more clearly than anyone»
