The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.

艺术不在于界限，而在于自由。

I’d tell men and women in their mid-twenties not to settle for a job or a profession or even a career. Seek a calling. Even if you don’t know what that means, seek it. If you’re following your calling, the fatigue will be easier to bear, the disappointments will be fuel, the highs will be like nothing you’ve ever felt.

"The past is never dead. It's not even past."

我不害怕失败。我害怕不去尝试。

The best art is the art that stays with you.
