Stella Adler "Life beats down and crushes the soul and art reminds you that you have one." Paulo Coelho "Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience." Samuel Butler "Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on." B. F. Skinner "A failure is not always a mistake, it may simply be the best one can do under the circumstances. The real mistake is to stop trying." Ayn Rand "-A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others." |
