Nobody is bored when he is trying to make something that is beautiful or to discover something that is true.

"More beautiful than a rose is the soul that beholds it"

Love is the recognition of beauty.

All children are artists. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up...

Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.

Every day we slaughter our finest impulses. That is why we get a heart-ache when we read those lines written by the hand of a master and recognize them as our own, as the tender shoots which we stifled because se we lacked the faith to believe in our own powers, our own criterion of truth and beauty. Every man, when he gets quiet, when he gets desperately honest with himself, is capable of uttering profound truths. We all derive form the same source. There is no mystery about the origin of things. We are all part of creation, all kings, all poets, all musicians; we have only to open up to discover what is already there.

An angry look on the face is wholly against nature. If it be assumed frequently, beauty begins to perish, and in the end is quenched beyond rekindling.

Truth is the first thing to be sought for,
and Beauty and Goodness will then be added unto you.

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world."

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
