"The man of humanity delights in mountains..." - Quote by Confucius

“Rotten wood cannot be carved.”

“I know how the birds fly, how the fishes swim, how animals run. But there is the Dragon. I cannot tell how it mounts on the winds through the clouds and flies through heaven. Today I have seen the Dragon.”

“If you did not do so for the sake of riches,You must have done so for the sake of novelty.”

“That which is common to the greatest number has the least care bestowed upon it. Every one thinks chiefly of his own, hardly at all of the common interest; and only when he is himself concerned as an individual. For besides other considerations, everybody is more inclined to neglect the duty which he expects another to fulfill.”

“The stakes are immense, the task colossal, the time is short. But we may hope - we must hope - that man's own creation, man's own genius, will not destroy him.”

“We have learned nothing.”

“My inspiration always comes from different places. Sometimes it's a piece of music or being in nature or seeing a film or reading a magazine. I find inspiration everywhere.”

“I am very fond of sunsets. Come, let us go look at a sunset.”

“Observe the wonders as they occur around you. Don't claim them. Feel the artistry moving through and be silent.”
