Wherever you are - be all there.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
It's always too early to quit.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
You never know what motivates you.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Well done is better than well said.
Never complain and never explain.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
I'm vulnerable to criticism. Any artist is, because you work alone in your studio and, until recently, critics were the only way you'd get any feedback.
