Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of... - Leo Tolstoy

"truth, like gold, is to be obtained not by its growth, but by washing away from it all that is not gold."

"The best stories don't come from "good vs. bad"but "good vs. good."

"A writer is dear and necessary for us only in the measure of which he reveals to us the inner workings of his very soul."

"Seize the moments of happiness, love and be loved! That is the only reality in the world, all else is folly. It is the one thing we are interested in here."

"Art is not a handicraft, it is the transmission of feeling the artist has experienced."
