"Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your hearth or burn down your house, you can never tell."
          
          –Joan Crawford

"Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction."
          
          –Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

"The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved; loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves."
          
          –Victor Hugo

"It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence, to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations. They presented him the words: 
          
          'And this, too, shall pass away.'
          
          How much it expresses! 
          
          How chastening in the hour of pride! - how consoling in the depths of affection! 
          
          'And this, too, shall pass away.'" 
          
          
          
          ~Abraham Lincoln 

"There is no measuring with time, no year matters and ten years are nothing. Being an artist means, not reckoning and counting, but ripening like tree which does not force its sap and stands confident in the storms of spring without the fear that after them may come no summer. It does come. But it comes only to the patient, who are there as though eternity lay before them, so unconcernedly still and wide. I learn it daily, learn it with pain to which I am grateful: 
          
          Patience is everything!"
          
          
          
          ~ Rainer Maria Rilke

"I make lists to keep my anxiety level down. If I write down fifteen things to be done, I lose that vague, nagging sense that there are an overwhelming number of things to be done, all of which are on the brink of being forgotten."
          
          
          
          ~ Mary Roach

"Your list is your past and your future. Carry at all times. Prioritize: today, this week, and eventually. You will someday die with items still on your list, but for now, while you live, your list helps prioritize what can be done in your limited time."
          
          
          
          ~ Tom Sachs

"I think I need to keep being creative, not to prove anything but because it makes me happy just to do it...
          I think trying to be creative, keeping busy, has a lot to do with keeping you alive"
          
          
          ~ Willie Nelson

"The Phone gives us a lot but it takes away three key elements of discovery: loneliness, uncertainty and boredom. Those have always been where creative ideas come from." 
          
          
          ~ Lynda Barry

"None of us know what will happen. Don't spend time worrying about it. Make the most beautiful thing you can. Try to do that every day. That's it."
