Ko says that a great work of art comes from the richness of one's life and personal reflection. "Human life is connected to everything in the universe. You should see more art, listen to more music, read more books and think more, and the cells in your brain will naturally tell you when is the best time to click the shutter."
柯錫杰說，他始終以為，一幅佳作來自於藝術生命的豐厚與自我的反省冶煉，「人類生命與宇宙萬物相通，多看好作品、聽音樂、看書、思考，腦中的小細胞自然會催促你在最佳時機按下快門，」至於等不等得到維納斯，就要看各人的造化了。
