Words to live by:

Re- examine all that you have been told in school,
or in church or in any book. Dismiss whatever
insults your soul
-Walk Whitman.

Keep in mind that neither success nor failure
is ever final.
Every man's memory is his private literature.

If you hear a voice within you say
"you cannot paint," then by all means paint,
and that voice will be silenced.

When there is no enemy within,
the enemies outside cannot hurt you.

No matter what he does, every person on earth plays
a central role in the history of the world.

It’s not that people are mean or cruel,
they’re just busy.

Never apologize for your art.

It is not the critic who counts nor the man
who points out how the strong man stumbled,
or where the doer of deeds could have done t
hem better. The credit belongs to the man who
is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by
dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly;
who errs and comes short again and again; who,
at the best, knows in the end the triumph
of high achievement; and who, at the worst, if he fails,
at least fails while daring greatly so that his place
shall never be with those cold and timid souls who
know neither victory nor defeat.
-Theodore Roosevelt

According to Vedanta, there are only two symptoms
of enlightenment, just two indications that a
transformation is taking place within you toward
a higher consciousness. The first symptom is that
you stop worrying. Things don’t bother you
anymore. You become light hearted and full
of joy. The second symptom is that you encounter
more and more meaningful coincidences in your life,
more and more synchronicities. And this accelerates
to the point where you actually experience the
miraculous.
-Deepak Chopra

“…be patient toward all that is unsolved in your
heart and try to love the questions themselves like
locked rooms and like books that are written in a
very foreign tongue…do not now seek the answers,
which cannot be given to you because you would not
be able to live them. And the point is, to live
everything. Live the questions now.”
- Rainer Maria Rilke

Oh soul, you worry too much. You have seen
your own strength. You have seen your own beauty.
You have seen your golden wings. Of anything less,
why do you worry? You are in truth the soul,
of the soul, of the soul.” - Rumi

“If we citizens do not support our artists,
then we sacrifice our imagination on the altar of
crude reality and we end up believing in nothing
and having worthless dreams”
-authors note Life of Pi by Yann Martel

To do the math and at the same time dream
- Austin Kleon
