"I have, let’s say, sixty years to live. Most of that time will be spent working. If I find no joy in it, then I’m condemning myself to sixty years of torture. And I can find the joy only if I do my work in the best possible way to me. But the best is a matter of standards — and I set my own standards. I inherit nothing. I stand at the end of no tradition. I may, perhaps, stand at the beginning of one."
