Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



Be proud of your accomplishments. But don't take them too seriously.
~Dr. Lee Jampolsky



Passion is universal humanity. Without it religion, history, romance and art would be useless. ~Honoré de Balzac



Chase down your passion like it's the last bus of the night. ~Glade Byron Addams



Love has no desire but to fulfill itself. To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night. To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving. ~Kahlil Gibran



He that respects himself is safe from others; he wears a coat of mail that none can pierce. ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow



Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self. ~Cyril Connolly

  13. We know that we are passionate when we can not contain that which has arisen within us. It must be released and transmitted into the world knowing that it will find those ears or eyes that have requested this life sustaining and changing stimulus.
