"Have convictions. Be friendly. Stick to your beliefs as they stick to theirs. Work as hard as they do."

Akiroq Brost

"A good work ethic is not so much a concern for hard work but rather one for responsibility.

In matters such as these, the hard worker is just as dysfunctional as the sloth."

Akiroq Brost

"I don't mean to be arrogant and I really appreciate my fans but talking about what I am doing is not something I'm good at. I do what I do and that's it. I want to get back to my work and do more of it instead of talking about it."

Akiroq Brost

"One is not idle because one is absorbed. There is both visible and invisible labor. To contemplate is to toil, to think is to do. The crossed arms work, the clasped hands act. The eyes upturned to Heaven are an act of creation."
