In our life there is a single color, as on an artist's palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love. -Marc chagall

"To awaken each morning with a smile brightening my face;
to greet the day with reverence for the opportunities it contains;
to approach my work with a clean mind;
to hold ever before me, even in the doing of little things, the ultimate purpose toward which I am working;
to meet men and women with laughter on my lips and love in my heart;
to be gentle, kind, and courteous through all the hours;
to approach the night with weariness that ever woos sleep and the joy that comes from work well done -
this is how I desire to waste wisely my days."
Thomas Dekker (c 1570 - c. 1641)

“As women,

many of us have been taught to be too cautious,

too nice,

and to play it too safe.

That overly conservative style may inhibit the emergence of your creative self.”

Gail McMeekin

life's journey is circular,

it appears.

the years don't carry us away from our fathers

-they return us to them

-michel marriott -

Love is the only thing that we can carry with us when we go,

and it makes the end so easy. – Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888)

Life is a patchwork

here and there,

Scraps of pleasure and despair Join together,

hit or miss

In everyone's life, at some time,

our inner fire goes out.

It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being.

We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.

Albert Schweitzer

Obstacles cannot crush me,

Every obstacle yields to stern resolve.

He who is fixed to a star does not change his mind.

Leonardo da Vinci

People don't use thier eyes.
They never see a bird, they see a sparrow.
They never see a tree, they see a birch.
They see concepts.
-Joyce Cary

"There is a crack in everything.

That's how the light gets in."
