There are aphorisms that, like airplanes, stay up only while they are in motion.

I would like nuclear fusion to become a practical power source. It would provide an inexhaustible supply of energy, without pollution or global warming.

The more you depend on forces outside yourself, the more you are dominated by them.

Harold Sherman

If you pick something you actually enjoy doing, you have fun every day of your life.

On the contrary, art consists of inventing and not copying. The Italian Renaissance is a period of artistic decadence. Those men, devoid of their predecessors' inventiveness, thought they were stronger as imitators-that is false. Art must be free in its inventiveness, it must raise us above too much reality. This is its goal, whether it is poetry or painting. The plastic life, the picture, is made up of harmonious relationships among volumes, lines, and colors. These are the three forces that must govern works of art. If, in organizing these three essential elements harmoniously, one finds that objects, elements of reality, can enter into the composition, it may be better and may give the work more richness. But they must be subordinated to the three essential elements mentioned above. Modern work thus takes a point of view directly opposed to academic work. Academic work puts the subject first and relegates pictorial values to a secondary level, if there is room.For us others, it is the opposite. Every canvas, even if nonrepresentational, that depends on harmonious relationships of the three forces-color, volume, and line-is a work of art. I repeat, if the object can be included without shattering the governing structure, the canvas is enriched.Sometimes these relationships are merely decorative when they are abstract. But if objects figure in the composition-free objects with a genuine plastic value-pictures result that have as much variety and profundity as any with an imitative subject.

Mikhail Bakunin

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Charisma becomes the undoing of leaders. It makes them inflexible, convinced of their own infallibility, unable to change.

Peter Drucker

I believe there are three keys to success. For me it is keeping my priorities in order: It's my faith and my family, and then the business.
