Quotes I Love...

‎"It takes more courage to reveal insecurities than to hide them, more strength to relate to people than to dominate them, more 'manhood' to abide by through-out principles rather than blind reflex. Toughness is in the soul and spirit, not in the muscles and an immature mind." ~ Alex Karras

"Books are the windows through 
which the soul looks out."
— Henry Ward Beecher

"I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free."

Kahlil Gibran

"In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed."
Kahlil Gibran

"The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls."
Pablo Picasso





Do not let your fire go out,

spark by irreplacable spark
in the hopeless swamps
of the not quite,
the not yet,
and the not at all,
Do not let the hero in your soul perish
and leave only frustration for the life you deserved,
but never have been able to reach.
The world you desire can be won,
it exists,
it is real,
it is possible,
it is yours.
-Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

Children/Babies
“When the first baby laughed for the first time, the laugh broke into a thousand pieces and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies.”- J. M. Barrie from  Peter Pan

"If one feels the need of something grand, something infinite, something that makes one feel aware of God, one need not go far to find it. I think that I see something deeper, more infinite, more eternal than the ocean in the expression of the eyes of a little baby when it wakes in the morning and coos or laughs because it sees the sun shining on its cradle."
- Vincent van Gogh


Love You Forever
“I’ll love you forever,
I’ll like you for always,
as long as I’m living
my baby you’ll be.”- Robert Munsch  [my family absolutely LOVES Robert Munsch's books]




I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, And that enables you to laugh at life's realities. - Dr. Seuss








"From there to here, from here to there, funny things are everywhere!"
— Dr. Seuss (One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish)








Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up. -Pablo Picasso 






The child must know that he is a miracle, that since the beginning of the world there hasn't been, and until the end of the world there will not be, another child like him. -Pablo Casals
