Art gives those unexpressed parts of ourselves permission to be felt and spoken.

They are called, "SELF-worth" and "SELF-esteem" for a reason... we can't let others decide what we are worth, that is so dangerous! Empower yourself!

People can have the best of intentions when they tell their loved ones how they should be living their lives. But often times, when we are in struggle, we are seeking to be supported, not solved.

From the tattered edges of an exhausted mind, inspiration blooms... mental filters disintegrate and walls crumble, as the ocean of creativity washes over everything.

Imagination is our inner-child and creativity, its playground.

Sanity is transmuting all the insane parts of your brain into a creative outlet.

Art invites us to become explorers and excavators of our vast internal landscapes, discovering new terrain and digging deep into the past to unearth forgotten experiences and emotion.

My past takes no hostages, no prisoners. I've let go of yesterday and am free to receive the beautiful gift of the present.

I embrace my shadow self. Shadows give depth and dimension to my life. I believe in embracing my duality, in learning to let darkness and light, peacefully co-exist, as illumination.

Grace is darkness and light, peacefully co-existing, as illumination.

I am the brightest light beaming from the darkest depths. A dichotomy, i am . . . illumination.

The way you’re smiling a little makes me think maybe you wouldn’t mind an older man.

There is no comparison: The money is over here and the love is over there. But the love is the most important thing.

If cryonics were a scam it would have far better marketing and be far more popular.

When a movie succeeds, it takes me to another world where I don't think about it and I'm just immersed.

After 20 years in the game, I was fortunate to get away from the game and enjoy my family, which was great for me.

My mother isolated herself from all family and friends for some 20 years. And never met her grandchild, my son.

And at that moment, a lilting melody lifts to the moon as a single sparrow sings.

Immortality is a ridiculous illusion, an empty word, a butterfly net chasing the wind.

There is nothing wrong with violence in itself. In any particular case, whether violence is good or bad depends on how it is used and the purpose for which it is used.
