&quot;This is my life. I am both happy and sad, and still trying to figure out how that can be.&quot;<br /> &quot;...until human voices wake us, and we drown.&quot;<br /> &quot;Not all who wander are lost.&quot;<br /> &quot;Everything has a crack in it. That;s how the light gets in.&quot;

Picasso had to prove to the world he could paint the right way, before he goes putting both eyes on the side of a face...
