quotes

The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting
our aim too low, and achieving our mark.
N. Hill

Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain and most fools do.
Benjamin Franklin

An artist is an explorer. He has to begin by self-discovery and by observation of his own procedure.
After that he must not feel under any constraint.
Henri Matisse

For the creative soul cannot survive on past accomplishments, and so each day the artist must go forth
and face his fears and embrace the unknown.
Robert Rosenstein

If art was defined simply by the ability to draw, then my inkjet printer would be a greater artist than
Michelangelo
~Curtis Verdun

 The world can only be grasped by action, not by contemplation. The hand is the cutting edge of the mind.

Anon

Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself.  Being true to anyone else or anything
else is not only impossible, but the mark of a fake messiah.
Richard Bach

Live as if you’d drop dead in ten seconds.
Ray Bradbury

An artist can show things that other people are terrified of expressing.
Louise Bourgeois

If art was defined simply by the ability to draw, then my inkjet printer would be a greater artist than
Michelangelo.
Curtis Verdun

The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

To fake it is to stand guard over emptiness.
Arthur Herzog
