“The ideal is unnatural naturalness, or natural unnaturalness. I mean it is a combination of both.
I mean here is natural instinct and here is control. You are to combine the two in harmony.

If you have another to the extreme, you become, all of a sudden, a mechanical man

It is a successful combination of both.
That way it is a process of continuing growth.
Be water, my friend.”

A man must constantly exceed his level.”
