Here are a few quotes that I spent the summer reflecting on...
"He who makes a mistake is still our friend; he who adds to, or shortens a melody is still our friend; but, he who violates a rhythm unawares can never be our friend." ~Arab Proverb
"We LEARN by GOING."
"It may be that when we no longer know what to do, we have come to our real work, and that when we no longer know which way to go, we have begun our real journey." ~Wendell Berry
"Sometimes attaining the deepest familiarity with a question is our best substitute for actually having the answer." ~Brian Greene The Elegant Universe
"'Being creative' is not something beyond us, nor do we have to become it. 'Creative' is an idea that compartmentalizes and limits our experience. When we start thinking about being creative, we break from the present. Our bodies are in one place (present) and our minds are in another (future)" ~Ruth Zaporah
"If people will go believing that they "know", it is impossible to eradicate anything - it makes it impossible to teach them." ~F.M. Alexander
"People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway. If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, it may never be enough. Give your best anyway. For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It never was between you and them anyway." ~Mother Teresa
I hope that you gain inspiration or whatever it is that you are seeking from some thoughts by others....
