Bear fruit and give life as you blow, with your hands out of your pockets. From dirty roots we remove ourselves, no longer thinking ugly. All time flows, giving life. Ignite a fire, flaming soul. No longer cold, give life. Revive your soul and paint the world.

Wednesday Oct 10 @ 01:16pmHenry David Thoreau (July 12, 1817 – May 6, 1862)
“It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.”
We are all alone, born alone, die alone, and — in spite of True Romance magazines — we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way. I do not say lonely — at least, not all the time — but essentially, and finally, alone. This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don’t see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness.

Compassion hurts. When you feel connected to everything, you also feel responsible for everything. And you cannot turn away. Your destiny is bound with the destinies of others. You must either learn to carry the Universe or be crushed by it. You must grow strong enough to love the world, yet empty enough to sit down at the same table with its worst horrors.

We see art not as a mirror to hold up to reality but as a hammer with which to shape it.
