Art gives its vision to beauty not always recognized. And it surrenders freely -- whatever power it possesses to every sincere soul that seeks it. But above all else--it presents us with the gift of ourselves.

Your pain is a school unto itself–– and your joy a lovely temple.

Change is one of the scariest things in the world and yet it is also one of those variables of human existence that no one can avoid.

In a world gushing blood day and night, you never stop mopping up pain.

Everywhere we shine death and life burn into something new.

If life is a birthday cake let my face be smeared with its icing of cognac and kindness.

As goes love so goes life.
