Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heavens sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something. |

Go into the Arts. I'm not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. |

All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt. |

I made the first Moebius strip without knowing what it was. |

Art is a product; design is a process. |

In design man becomes what he is. Animals have language and perception as well, but they do not design. |

No more art. The street is more important than the museum. |

Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens. |

You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. |

Love one another, but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. |
