“To a nonpainter, oil paint is uninteresting and faintly unpleasant. To a painter, it is the life's blood: a substance so utterly entrancing, infuriating, and ravishingly beautiful that it makes it worthwhile to go back into the studio every morning, year after year, for an entire lifetime.” YearsBeautifulMorningBloodLifetimePaintStudiosOilPainterSubstanceWorthwhileEvery MorningInfuriating Book:What Painting Is Source: What Painting Is
“The question now was...whether that beautiful fabric [the English constitution]...was to be maintained in that freedom...for which blood had been spilt; or whether we were to submit to that system of despotism, which had so many advocates in this country.” CountryBeautifulBloodConstitutionSubmitFabricDespotism Author:Charles James Fox
“As a child, I saw this beautiful film, Dracula's Daughter, and it was with Gloria Holden and was a sequel to the original Dracula. It was all about this beautiful daughter of Dracula who was an artist in London, and she felt drinking blood was a curse. It had beautiful, sensitive scenes in it, and that film mesmerized me. It established to me what vampires werethese elegant, tragic, sensitive people. I was really just going with that feeling when writing Interview With the Vampire. I didn't do a lot of research.” PeopleWritingChildrenFeelingsBeautifulFilmArtistFeltSawsBloodSceneResearchDaughterOriginalsDrinkingLondonVampireCurseSensitiveInterviewsTragicElegantSequelsGloriaHoldenMesmerizedBeautiful Daughter Author:Anne Rice

“Each of our cells is a living entity, and the main thing that influences them is our blood. If I open my eyes in the morning and my beautiful partner is in front of me, my perception causes a release of oxytocin, dopamine, growth hormones - all of which encourage the growth and health of my cells. But if I see a saber tooth tiger, I'm going to release stress hormones which change the cells to a protection mode. People need to realize that their thoughts are more primary than their genes, because the environment, which is influenced by our thoughts, controls the genes.” PeopleIfsNeedsEyeBeautifulCausesGrowthRealizingMorningEnvironmentBloodInfluenceFrontsPerceptionStressProtectionPartnersTeethReleaseCellsPrimariesGenesEntityOur ThoughtsTigersHormonesDopamineOxytocinGrowth HormonesStress Release Author:Bruce H.
