I equate fame towards people who know your work, people who will see your work. But all that stuff, like with the Genies and stuff like that, it was so much fun. It's so much fun and it's nice when it comes, but that's not what it's all about. ↗

The most authentic thing about us is our capacity to create, to overcome, to endure, to transform, to love and to be greater than our suffering. ↗

Don't despair too much if you see beautiful things destroyed, if you see them perish. Because the best things are always growing in secret. ↗
