Make success a fucking “must”.

You only sell your equity once.

You ought to have more dreams than memories.

You owe the world not the other way around.

You paint for yourself first, then for your friends, and then for the people you would
like to know.

You train your dog, you educate your people.

You try to give them the advantages you never had and what they want is the life you had.

You understand the finiteness of life and you understand that every choice entails making some other choice.

You waited for its return with impatience and mounting unease.

You want it bad, you get it bad.

You will always be surrounded by comfort.  But you won’t always be comfortable.

You will always find those who think they know your duty better than you know it.

You will become as small as your controlling desire; as great as your dominant
aspiration.

You will go away with old, good friends.  Don't forget when you leave why you came.

You will go most safely by the middle way.
You will have it when you need it.  It's your character.

You will never fail if you never give up.

You will never stub your toe standing still.  The faster you go, the more chance
there is of stubbing your toe, but the more chance you have of getting somewhere.

You would never imagine a future without them.

You wouldn’t have won if we’d beaten you.

You wouldn't know a good story if it was tattooed on the end of your prick.

You write a hit play the same way you write a flop.

You write what you see.

You'll never have all the information you need to make a decision-if you did, it would be a foregone conclusion, not a decision.

You'll never really know what happiness is unless you've got something to compare it to.

You'll see it when you believe it.

Young people today are only interested in being famous.  But it's not about being famous. It's about being good.

“Young people wore out early – they were hard and languid.  The city was bloated, glutted, stupid with cakes and circuses, and a new expression, ‘O yeah?’ summed up all the enthusiasms.”

Your actions are pointless if no one notices.

Your attitude determines your altitude.

Your best teacher is your last mistake.

Your data shouldn’t show up in your creative.

Your days are short here; this is the last of your springs.  And now in the serenity and quiet of this lovely place, touch the depths of truth, feel the hem of heaven.

You’re as sick as your secrets.

You're either the very best at what you do or you don't do it for very long.

You've got to be careful if you don't know where you're going because you might not get there.


You've got to be ready to bite the ass off a bear every morning.
