“My life is about my journey, and your life is about your journey. You are completely unqualified to draw my map, and I am completely unqualified to draw yours. I hope you'll let me know all about the path you've found, so that I may judge it for myself against my own path, and have the freedom to choose between the two. But please don't try and drag me from my path on to yours, and I will be sure to return the favor.” KnowsLifeTryingMayTwoLife IsFoundMy OwnPathJourneyJudgingReturnPleaseDrawsLet MeFavorsMapsDragMy JourneyFreedom To ChooseUnqualified Author:Derek R.

“Writing objects to the lie that life is small. Writing is a cell of energy. Writing defines itself. Writing draws its viewer in for longer than an instant. Writing exhibits boldness. Writing restores power to exalt, unnerve, shock, and transform us. Writing does not imitate life, it anticipates life.” WritingDoeLife IsLyingEnergyObjectsDrawsCellsInstantShockViewersBoldnessAnticipateExhibits Author:Jeanette Winterson

The elevated mind takes in and breathes out again that which would be uncongenial to the baser; and the baser draws life and enjoyment from that which would be putridity to the loftier.” MenMindKindTwoWould BeHappinessLife IsWaterAirDrawsBreatheSuitsEnjoymentOne ManCompositesAir And Water Book:The works of Walter Savage Landor [ed. by J.

“If you study Japanese art you see a man who is undoubtedly wise, philosophic and intelligent, who spends his time how? In studying the distance between the earth and the moon? No. In studying the policy of Bismarck? No. He studies a single blade of grass. But this blade of grass leads him to draw every plant and then the seasons, the wide aspects of the countryside, then animals, then the human figure. So he passes his life, and life is too short to do the whole.” IfsMenHumansArtWholeEarthLife IsAnimalStudyWiseFiguresPolicyMoonDrawsAspectSeasonsIntelligentDistancePlantWideGrassToo ShortBladesLife Is Too ShortCountrysidePhilosophicBlades Of GrassJapanese ArtBismarck Author:Vincent Van Gogh
“Early in life, I decided that I would not be overcome by events. My philosophy has been that regardless of the circumstances, I shall not be vanquished, but will try to be happy. Life is not easy for any of us. But it is a continual challenge, and it is up to us to be cheerful - and to be strong, so that those who depend on us may draw strength from our example.” TryingMayHas BeensPhilosophyLife IsStrongEasyChallengesEventsExampleDependsCircumstancesDrawsDecidedOvercomingHappy LifeCheerfulLife Is Not EasyTrying To Be Happy Author:Rose Kennedy
