“Progress is a comfortable disease.”

Remember one thing only: that it’s you-nobody else-who determines your destiny and decides your fate. Nobody else can be alive for you; nor can you be alive for anybody else.

The artist is not a man who describes, but a man who feels.

Sweet springtime is my time is your time is our time for springtime is love time and viva sweet love.

Kisses are a better fate than wisdom.

Your head is a living forest full of songbirds.

Tomorrow is our permanent address.

Do not hate or fear the artist in yourselves… Honor and love him do not try to possess him. Trust him as nobly as you trust tomorrow. Only the artist in yourself is more truthful than the night.

Love is the voice under all silences, the hope which has no opposite in fear.

The first step to expanding your reality is to discard the tendency to exclude things from possibility.

Love is the voice under all silences, the hope which has no opposite in fear; the strength so strong mere force is feebleness: the truth more first than sun, more last than star.

We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us something is valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust, sacred to our touch. Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit.

Because you aren’t afraid to kiss the dirt (and consequently dare to climb the sky)

Well, write poetry, for God’s sake, it’s the only thing that matters.

The snow doesn’t give a soft white damn whom it touches.

And this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart)

To be nobody-but-yourself – in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else – means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.

Better to sleep in an uncomfortable bed free, than sleep in a comfortable bed unfree.

British people still wear clothes. By clothes I mean actual clothes: jackets and shirts and ties and suits. English men make an effort. We’ve lost that in the US. Everyone is more concerned with being comfortable.

You have to get comfortable with your work, you really have to know what you’re doing, and it has to be almost boring to you to be able to do it well.

The deepest pain I ever felt was denying my own feelings to make everyone else comfortable.

I have always been a person who is extremely comfortable in my skin. I have always just been myself in all these years on the public platform.

I can walk into a room with all my contemporaries and I will be very comfortable.

I am not very comfortable about dancing at weddings and New Year parties. Maybe it’s because of the way I have been brought up; I wouldn’t want my family to feel that cringe moment. Dance is an art for me.

People are slowly realizing that they’re looking at drag all the time. ‘Mrs. Doubtfire.’ ‘Real Housewives.’ Peewee Herman. Don’t let calling it drag make you uncomfortable.
