'My dreams prosper and encourage the dreams of others. There is no competition, no devaluing of others to reach my goals. As I flower creatively, I give to others the gift of my example.' Blessings by Julia Cameron

' "Do the kinds of things that come from the heart. When you do, you won't be dissatisfied, you won't be envious, you won't be longing for somebody else's things. On the contrary, you'll be overwhelmed with what comes back." '
Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom

'Failure isn't bad, it's the tuition we pay for success.'
Kristen Lamb

If you will it,
it is no dream Theodor Herzl

All I know for certain is that this is how I want to spend my life--collaborating to the best of my ability with forces of inspiration that I can neither see, nor prove, nor command, nor understand Elizabeth Gilbert (Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear)

'If you're waiting for permission you'll be waiting forever.' Smiley Poswolsky

'Don't be afraid. The dark is for dreaming.' -Chris Hadfield
