"Be rather bountiful, than expensive."

--

William Penn

“Don't do nothing halfway, else you find yourself dropping more than can be picked up.”
“where I have seen good I shall speak of it with pleasure, and where I have seen the reverse, I shall try to be silent; for a book is meant to give pleasure, and pain that is inflicted in black and white lasts for ever.”

“Perfect is very boring, and if you happen to have a different look, that's a celebration of human nature, I think. If we were all symmetrical and perfect, life would be very dull.”
“Sometimes I worry I don't want to get married as much as I'd like to be dipped in a vat of warm, rising bread dough.”
“You know, I am just a musician and I have no idea these days what good and bad is in terms of labels.”
“Somehow, in painting I try to make some logic out of the world that has been given to me in chaos.”
“To what will you look for help if you will not look to that which is stronger than yourself?”
“I think the way you can tell if a guy and girl are in a serious relationship is whether or not they have black and white pictures of themselves together. That's the real test. Because it takes effort to get nice black and white photos. If you've gone that far, there's no turning back.”
