"It's a simple and generous rule of life that whatever you practice, you will improve at."

"if I am not actively creating something, then I am probably actively destroying something".

"It seems to me that the less I fight my fear, the less it fights back. If I can relax, fear relaxes, too."

"The universe buries strange jewels deep within us all, and then stands back to see if we can find them."

"Give your mind a job to do, or else it will find a job to do, and you might not like the job it invents."

"Be the weirdo who dares to enjoy."
