I have made my world and it is a much better world than I ever saw outside.

It gave me great pleasure to think that I could take wood, make it good, and make people like Rockefeller buy it with paper money.

What we start with is a conviction to fulfill our being. Horses, trees fulfill themselves. Why shouldn't people.

I never feel age...If you have creative work, you don't have age or time.

You must create your own world. I'm responsible for my world.

I see no reason why I should tickle stones or waste time on polishing bronze.
