Some people grumble because roses have thorns; I am thankful that the thorns have roses.

Don't believe everything you think.

If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

I believe great people do things before they are ready.

Become so wrapped up in something that you forget to be afraid.

Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start.

Love is a state of Being. Your love is not outside; it is deep within you. You can never loose it, and it cannot leave you. It is not dependent on some other body, some external form.

Focusing on the tiniest details, finding magic in even the smallest inspirations, embracing the briefest moments ~ that's where passion is.

Your purpose has nothing to do with how you make a living. That is your vocation, mission or inspired passion - all worthy - but your purpose is much simpler and bigger. Your purpose is joy. It's about discovering, nurturing, and celebrating who you truly are, and knowing and loving yourself at the deepest level.

Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its joy.

It is the world that is enlightened and we who are intermittent.

We can't plan life. All we can do is be available for it.

There is nothing like a dream to create the future.

Life is too sweet to be bitter.

Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others.

Be driven, be focused, but enjoy every moment, because it only happens once.

My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.

Art brings the subconscious to the surface. It makes our thoughts and feelings known. It gives shape and form to our ideas. It makes our beliefs visible. Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going? These are questions art will answer.

Silence is the mother of truth.

What we are today comes from our thoughts of yesterday, and our present thoughts build our life of tomorrow. Our life is the creation of our mind.
