“"If you stand behind a wall, you woudn't be able to see through it so as when you distance yourself from a pit you can't determine it's depth Just get there".”

“Sometimes you can't see yourself clearly until you see yourself through the eyes of others.”

“I believe that there are varying points of contact. You have to be able to see the whole thing first. All great paintings are sculptures – there's so much of the factualness about it that a great painting forces you into a visual, physical movement of yourself. That's what determines the way you experience a painting kinetically. You move closer, you sight down it, you till your head, you step back, you feel as though you are in it. That being in it is just as important as looking from a distance.”

“If you zoom close-if you get really close to someone, if you really get close to yourself-then you lose the other person, you lose yourself entirely. You get so close you can't see anything anymore.”

“Is it a crime when you love someone so much that you can't stand the thought of them changing? Is it a crime when you love someone so much that you can't see clearly?”

“If you are always frightened for yourself you can't act, and then life loses its purpose. You just have to tell yourself that, when you get right down to it, you don't matter all that much.”

“You just can't get distracted easily. If you're having a bad day you just gotta keep going and you just can't be too hard on yourself.”

“It's really designed, I think, to strip you and blend you. It's like feeling like the invisible man. You just stand there, and you start disintegrating, and you can't see yourself, and you just feel like you're being absorbed into this big blob of glitter.”

“When you can't save yourself or your heart, it helps to be able to save face.”

“No matter what you’re going through there's no pit so deep that God can’t reach in and get you out.”
