If you look at a painting just the right way, you get the most out of it!”

The part that doesn't get printed is often the part that would make the printed part less sensational by shedding light on the facts.”

One sound comes from a chamber orchestra, the other from the beating of the heart's chamber. One comes from an instrument of graphite and wood, the other from an organ of flesh and blood.

That sweet sound of love.”
