今天的科学是明天的技术。

你用镜子看脸，用艺术品看灵魂。

I don’t care if people like my work. I care if they feel something.

The number one organ of ridicule, nowadays, is the newspaper. If you open the newspaper any day of the week, it's full of people who've messed up their lives. They've slept with the wrong person, taken the wrong substance, passed the wrong piece of legislation -- whatever it is, and then are fit for ridicule. In other words, they have failed. And they are described as "losers." Now, is there any alternative to this? I think the Western tradition shows us one glorious alternative, which is tragedy.

The only thing that’s keeping you from getting what you want is the story you keep telling yourself.

我不是一个喜欢平常的人。
