New York is dead. It's too expensive.

Art is the exclusion of the unnecessary.

A man climbs a mountain because it is there. An artist makes a work of art because it is not there.

The librarian, the warrior, the free spirit... archetypes are a great jumping off point to help clarify where we want to go with a character.

It's extraordinary to look into a baby's face and see a piece of your flesh and your spirit. It makes you realize you are a part of the human race.

I looked into the mirror and saw this middle-aged woman who keeps invading my face.

A comeback is possible so let's hope it's a good day for us. Arsenal is a very fast team but we can get through.
