忧伤愁苦，就会心气滞结；忿怨愤怒，就会心气横逆不顺；惊恐畏惧，就会心气沉落不浮；拘谨固执，就会心气郁郁不释；急躁浮躁，就会心气损耗不足。

The act of painting is a way of thinking, a way of understanding the world.

The harder you work, the luckier you get.

In a way, if you like, at one end of the spectrum of sympathy, you've got the tabloid newspaper. At the other end of the spectrum, you've got tragedy and tragic art. And I suppose I'm arguing that we should learn a little bit about what's happening in tragic art. It would be insane to call Hamlet a loser. He is not a loser, though he has lost. And I think that is the message of tragedy to us, and why it's so very, very important, I think.
