"You are the song of every bird,..." - Quote by Dolly Parton

“I love thinking, I love coming up with great ideas. I just get excited. Sometimes if I get a big idea, I'm just like a kid, like I've found a new toy.”

“I'll be like Bob Hope, touring when I'm 100.”

“I'm on a seafood diet - I see food, I eat it.”

“I am an undiluted admirer of American values and the American dream and I believe they will continue to inspire not just the people of the United States but millions across the face of the globe.”

“Inspiration is in seeing a part of the whole with the part of the whole in you.”

“Already nature is serving all those uses which science slowly derives on a much higher and grander scale to him that will be served by her. When the sunshine falls on the path of the poet, he enjoys all those pure benefits and pleasures which the arts slowly and partially realize from age to age. The winds which fan his cheek waft him the sum of that profit and happiness which their lagging inventions supply.”

“All art is concerned with coming into being.”

“Man never creates, he only recombines the lines and colors of his own existance.”

“Art is born of the observation and investigation of nature.”
