I don't believe in the clash of cultures. The culture is one. The culture is a ring off the same chain. Picasso was very much influenced by the African arts, and he influenced a whole other generation of artists. So everything influences everything. ~Marjane Satrapi

Morning without you is a dwindled dawn. ~Emily Dickinson
#quotes #emily-dickinson #morning #romance
I think to an extent every human being needs to be redeemed somewhat or at least needs to look at themselves and say, "I've made mistakes, I'm off course, I need to change." Which is probably the hardest thing for a human being to do, and maybe that's why it interests me so. ~Joss Whedon

True celebration should come from your life, in your life. And true celebration cannot be according to the calendar, that on the first of November you will celebrate. Strange, the whole year you are miserable and on the first of November suddenly you come out of misery, dancing. Either, the misery is false, or the first of November is false; both cannot be true. And once the first of November has gone, you are back in your dark hole, everybody in his misery, everybody in his anxiety. ~Rajneesh

The ways to the One are as many as the lives of men. ~Zen Proverb

If you're "stuck" right now, you're probably into fear. Get out of there. You've already looked both ways. Now cross the street, for heaven sake. The cars have long since gone. The coast is clear. Your only obstacle now is your own mind. ~Neale Donald Walsch
