Max Richter
German Composer
That childhood passion and involvement and being really submerged in something, that's the kind of state I'm looking for all the time - and preserving that sense of magical possibility and wonder that children have. I think, for artists, if you can stay connected to that, then you are in a good place.
Quote examples
Chris Ware
American Artist

Quote examples
Maria Semple
American Novelist
