Never open the door to a lesser evil, for other and greater ones invariably slink in after it.

Little said is soon amended. There is always time to add a word, never to withdraw one.

Work is the price which is paid for reputation.

I have always had confidence in my own ability.

I remember when I was in art classes, I hated following the assignments. And I would get in trouble for doing something totally different or taking it in a weird direction.
