In a certain sense every creative person is a reformer, but this does not mean that he must be in his work a propagandist for good roads, shorter hours, and a low tariff. All these are excellent things, but they need not be the concern of the artist. – Heywood Broun
You know, if you are kind of rich, the best thing is that you dont have to think about money. The best thing you can buy with money is freedom, time. I dont know how much I earn a year. I have no idea. I dont know how much I pay in taxes. – Haruki Murakami
