I never read in school. I got really bad grades-D's and F's and C's in some classes, and A's and B's in other classes. In the second week of the 11th grade, I just quit. When I was in school, it was really difficult. Almost everything I learned, I had to learn by listening. My report cards always said that I was not living up to my potential.
A lot can be done, but not everyone immediately succeeds in everything.
Erich Mendelsohn's drawings are expressive and beautiful. If he'd had the computers we have now, everything I've done he would have done before me. I would have had to figure out something else.
You're never going to learn everything.
Stress and worry is a residual of relying on yourself and being your own god, in control of everything. Worship allows us to rely on God's power to steer us through life.
After a point of time, when you get success and fame, money and everything, the purpose of life has to be redefined. For me, I think that purpose is to build bridges. Artists can do that very easily, more than politicians.
I can do a little bit of everything, I'd like to think.
I'm going to be focused on doing everything I possibly can to help solve the climate crisis.
We humans have an amazing way of making everything personal.
In the arts, as in life, everything is possible provided it is based on love.
Seeing everything just the way it is gives you the power and capability to walk through life effortlessly.
Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.
Everything is a drug. Family, art, causes, new shoes… We’re all just tweaking our chem to avoid the void.
To me success would be to be able to do your very best in everything you do.
I am inspired by the women I meet everywhere I go. They have to work so hard just to make sure their families survive, but somehow they stay optimistic and do everything in their power to make the future better than the past.
Desire makes everything blossom
There is a political and racial context behind everything that I do. Not always because I design it that way, or because I want it that way, but rather because it's just the way people look at the work of an African-American artist in this country.
Now that I think of it, she looked splendid. I wish I had met her somewhere else. I wish I had appreciated her as she deserved. I wish that everything had gone differently.
Everything I do is 100% automation, which means I'm just doing it live.
Sometimes now was enough. Sometimes it was everything.
