歌剧是一个美丽而非理性的世界。一个人可以用一生去聆听，却仍然不能理解所有的一切。

The search for a scapegoat is the easiest of all hunting expeditions.

You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.

"The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for."

I paint not to escape reality, but to confront it.
