“Wisdom comes to us when it can no longer do any good.”

When one reaches absolute power, one loses total contact with reality.

Don’t struggle so much, the best things happen when not expected.

My most important problem was destroying the lines of demarcation that separate what seems real from what seems fantastic.

If you love something, set it free. And if it really loves you, it will find a way to come back.

For me, the pleasure of writing comes with inventing stories.

I’ve heard tell that what you imagine sometimes comes true.

Failure comes part and parcel with invention. It’s not optional.
