The principal cause of suffering is craving. once craving is eliminated, much suffering will be eliminated. still more suffering will be eliminated once ignorance is eliminated. both craving and ignorance are equally powerful defilements that cause suffering.

For many years, i have been moved by the blue at the far edge of what can be seen, that color of horizons, of remote mountain ranges, of anything far away. the color of that distance is the color of an emotion, the color of solitude and of desire, the color of there seen from here, the color of where you are not. and the color of where you can never go.

I love paint. i like watercolours. i like acrylic paint... a little bit. i like house paint. i like oil-based paint, and i love oil paint. i love the smell of turpentine and i like that world of oil paint very, very, very much.

Most eyes have more than one color, but usually they're related. blue eyes may have two shades of blue, or blue and gray, or blue and green, or even a fleck or two of brown. most people don't notice that. when i first went to get my state id card, the form asked for eye color. i tried to write in all the colors in my own eyes, but the space wasnt big enough. they told me to put 'brown'. i put 'brown', but that is not the only color in my eyes. it is just the color that people see because they do not really look atr other people's eyes.

When you paint spring, do not paint willows, plums, peaches, or apricots, but just paint spring. to paint willows, plums, peaches, or apricots is to paint willows, plums, peaches, or apricots - it is not yet painting spring.

I see myself as no color. i can play the role of a man. i can paint my face white if i want to and play the role of white. i can play a green, i can be a purple. i think i have that kind of frame and that kind of attitude where i can play an animal. if you think in color, then everyone around you is going to think in color and that puts limits on the way you think. i don't think like that. a lot of the roles that i'm doing are roles that a man or a person of any color can do.
