The writing partnership is a good collaboration for the same reason the marriage works, which is two people who can stand alone choosing to stand together.

No matter who we are or what we look like or what we may believe, it is both possible and, more importantly, it becomes powerful to come together in common purpose and common effort.

Some couples could not work together but we enjoy working on our projects and building our art business.

The best partnerships aren't dependent on a mere common goal but on a shared path of equality, desire, and no small amount of passion.

It is not only one person's work, it's really a partnership and collaboration during all these years.

Collaborations aren't easy, but you definitely get something highly different than had you done it on your own. That's part of the experience.

As far as I'm concerned, collaboration is the essence of life. It's wonderful to be able to have talents, and, very often, we think that we know what our talents are, or we find out through a back door that we have a talent. I know that I found out I was a lyricist quite through a back door.

It's very tough when two creative people are together.

I think it is very natural to want to be partnered, but you never know. you read about mature love affairs in the press, and it gives you hope. You think: 'Well, it's not impossible.'

I'm an independent artist, but I do have a good business relationship with Lego, since I'm a unique customer. They're aware of what I'm doing. A painter may not have a relationship with a paint maker, but there's only one company that makes Lego.
