Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
I can, therefore I am.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Who seeks shall find.
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.
