Today, he is a widely known director and has produced many highly acclaimed and extremely successful movies. 畢卡索剛出道時原本想當詩人， 結果他的詩被極具鑑識力的絲泰茵夫人評得一文不值， 他因而回心轉意。 幸好有這位貴婦的提醒， 否則這世界不就少了一位大畫家了嗎? Picasso had originally wanted to be a poet. However, Madam Stein very poetically commented that Picasso’s poem were extremely worthless. He thus changed his mind. It is fortunate that the lady reminded him of this; otherwise this world should be short of a big painter. 其實，所有的人、事、物原本都是美好的， 只是所屬的地方適不適合而已。 In fact, everyone and everything are fine in the original state. But what makes a difference is what kind of environment
