All genuine art grows outward from the heart and is a matter of sensations. Art inspired primarily by the intellect may induce awe, excitement, or even laughter, but never tears, and there is no great art without tears. Work diligently with seriousness of purpose, but never take yourself seriously. There is no free lunch. Learn where you came from, who you are, and where you are going. Travel in healthy and intelligent company. Immerse yourself in music. Enjoy good food and learn how to prepare it yourself. Take full responsibility for your own behavior. Live skillfully. And never watch television.
- Russell Chatham
