“I am open to the guidance of synchronicity, and do not let expectations hinder my path.”

“If you are in a state of intense presence you are surrounded by beauty.”

“Sometimes you have to look reality in the eye, and deny it.”

“When you're a child, the most important thing is to be able to live in a world of certainties. But as you get older, you realized that's not the way life is.”

“I've always been a very private person. I've always valued my privacy.”

“My name is Luka. I live on the second floor. I live upstairs from you. Yes, I think you've seen me before.”

“I think that it's the job of the artist to be in transition and constantly learn new things. If you are not in a state of change, you are not doing your job.”

“I always felt that the great high privilege, relief and comfort of friendship was that one had to explain nothing.”

“All of my songs are about the way I feel.”

“Myths are stories that explain a truth that is profound and difficult to talk about.”

“I'd much rather be a woman than a man. Women can cry, they can wear cute clothes, and they are the first to be rescued off of sinking ships.”

“I think it's very important to keep being frightened - to do things that are scary.”

“So I'll watch you from a distance, see you make the same mistakes I made.”

“The great thing about being a writer is you can go to a different place in your mind.”
