The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me.
I don't build in order to have clients. I have clients in order to build. The hardest thing to explain is the glaringly evident which everybody had decided not to see. A man is not entitled to the goods of the earth. He is entitled to his own. The question isn't whether you can love me. The question is whether you will. To say ' I love you' one must first be able to say the ' I'. " The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me." “ The question isn’t who is going to let me; it’s who is going to stop me.” " A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others." I could die for you. But I couldn't, and wouldn't, live for you. “ To say ' I love you' one must first be able to say the ' I'.” “ I don’t build in order to have clients. I have clients in order to build.” “ The hardest thing to explain is the glaringly evident which everybody had decided not to see.” “ A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.” " I could die for you. But I couldn't, and wouldn't, live for you." " The man who does not value himself, cannot value anything or anyone." " I don't build in order to have clients. I have clients in order to build." |
