To aim high: "Even babies grab for things just beyond their reach." To be kind to yourself: S"ometimes you need a Saturday on a Wednesday." To follow your own path: "If the flowers you draw don t look like anyone else s, that s good." And to stay young: "Go barefoot " Tune in to the chatter on the playground, and remind yourself how simple everything really is."
