gptkbp:famous_quote
|
We adore chaos because we love to produce order.
Only those who attempt the absurd can achieve the impossible.
I am not an artist, I am a mathematician.
My work is a reflection of my thoughts.
The only thing that matters is the work.
The only thing that is certain is that nothing is certain.
My work is a game, a very serious game.
