"You don't have to boast for work that speaks for itself."

"False humility is quite like the worst of both worlds: both that of Meekness and that of Conceit."

"Every time I create something, whether an idea or a work of art, initially, its supposed completion seems absolutely perfect to me. However the more I think about it, stare it down, the more it marinates in my soul over the hours, days, and weeks, the more flaws I start to find in it; and finally, the more I'm pressed to continue enhancing it. It essentially turns out that whatever thing a flawed and imperfect, human eye once thought was amazing begins to appear quite wretched. This is why, eternally, God cannot be impressed by mere talents or by mortal achievements. To perfect eyes, I imagine that great is not really that great; rather, humility is ultimately a human being's true greatness."

"If one takes pride in one's craft, you won't let a good thing die. Risking it through not pushing hard enough is not a humility."
