"What I'm good at is making art."

-- Jock Sturges

“Talking much is a sign of vanity, for the one who is lavish with words is cheap in deeds.”
“Scepticism is a barren coast, without a harbor or lighthouse.”
“Live or die: mere consequences of what you have built. What matters is building well.”
“New Orleans life is such a night life. The thing that comes up very often is that our day essentially doesn't start until midnight or 2 in the morning.”
“As parties began to develop around the turn of the 19th century, you had party nominees for President nominated in caucuses made up of party members in Congress.”
“It is the mark of great art that its appeal is universal and eternal.”
