Quote by AVIS Viswanathan

“Don't seek reward and recognition for your art. The Purpose of art is not to earn fame or material assets. Those are byproducts. Your art is simply the way you express yourself. It must always be a selfless offering from you, in gratitude, to Creation - for having blessed you with a spiritual talent. So, stop yearning for 'Likes', followers and virality. Instead, pour your heart into creating more art. When your art is world-class, when it is unputdownable, money always follows. And true fame comes only from immortality; when your art lives on after you, inspiring future generations.”

“The straight tree is the first to be chopped down; the well of sweet water is the first to run dry. Sir, your intention is to display your knowledge in order to astonish the ignorant, and by developing your self, to cast a light upon the crudeness of others. You shine, you positively glow, as if you carried with you the sun and moon. All this is why you cannot avoid disasters. I have heard the great fulfillment man say, “The boastful have done nothing worthwhile, those who do something worthwhile will see it fade, fame soon disappears.” There are few who can forget success and fame and just return to being ordinary citizens again! The Tao moves all, but the perfect man does not stand in its light, his Virtue moves all, but he does not seek fame. He is empty and plain, and seems crazy. Anonymous, abdicating power, he has no interest in work or fame. So he doesn’t criticize others and they don’t criticize him. The perfect man is never heard, so why, Sir, do you so want to be?”

“И явился Зевс Асклепию таким, каким являлся титанам в битве: огромный, со страшилищем-эгидой на груди и перуном в руке, средь громов и молний. Притихло все живое в лесах и горах Пелиона, укрываясь от блеска и грохота громовых ударов. А мальчик-бог сказал: - Мне не страшно. Не сжег ты меня блеском своей славы. Ты только бог и не больше. А мир огромно-большой, и мысль Хирона больше тебя, владыки Олимпа. Удивился Молниевержец, свергающий в тартар титанов, отваге мальчика-бога.”
