“The artist never entirely knows. We guess. We may be wrong,
but we take leap after leap in the dark.” — Agnes De Mille

“Blessed are the hearts that can bend; they shall never be broken.”
― Albert Camus
By night, Love, tie your heart to mine,
and the two together in their sleep will defeat the darkness.
― Pablo Neruda
“I used to think I was the strangest person in the world but then I thought there are so many people in the world, there must be someone just like me who feels bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do. I would imagine her, and imagine that she must be out there thinking of me too. Well, I hope that if you are out there and read this and know that, yes, it’s true I’m here, and I’m just as strange as you.” ~ Frida Kahlo
The Dream
by Alexander Pushkin
Not long ago, in a charming dream,
I saw myself — a king with crown’s treasure;
I was in love with you, it seemed,
And heart was beating with a pleasure.
I sang my passion’s song by your enchanting knees.
Why, dreams, you didn’t prolong my happiness forever?
But gods deprived me not of whole their favor:
I only lost the kingdom of my dreams.
“The raven spread out its glossy wings and departed like hope.”
― Cecilia Dart-Thornton, The Battle of Evernight
The heart unites whatever the mind separates, pushes on beyond the arena
of necessity and transmutes the struggle into love. ~ Nikos Kazantzakis
