"I don't care about fame, I care about the art."

“我们都是由故事组成的，而这些故事是由时间构成的。”

The opera is a beautiful and irrational world. One could spend a lifetime listening and still not understand everything.

Let me explain. I think it would be very unusual for anyone here, or anyone watching, to be envious of the Queen of England. Even though she is much richer than any of you are, and she's got a very large house, the reason why we don't envy her is because she's too weird.

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work.
