I create for artistic intent only and do everything from life.

The most advanced nations are always those who navigate the most.

Voltaire

Get excited and enthusiastic about you own dream. This excitement is like a forest fire -- you can smell it, taste it, and see it from a mile away.

Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better.

André Gide

This war differs from other wars, in this particular. We are not fighting armies but a hostile people, and must make old and young, rich and poor, feel the hard hand of war.

William Tecumseh Sherman

You cannot look up at the night sky on the Planet Earth and not wonder what it's like to be up there amongst the stars. And I always look up at the moon and see it as the single most romantic place within the cosmos.

Men of action are favored by the Goddess of luck.

George S. Clason
