Inspiration

“You can’t wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.”

-J.M. Barrie

Transform

“There are painters who transform the sun to a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence, transform a yellow spot into the sun.”

-Pablo Picasso

Rapt in awe

“The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.”

-Albert Einstein

Free Hugs

Six

“Sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”

-Lewis Carroll
