I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.
From Robert Fulghum
Solitude is not the same as loneliness. Solitude is a solitary boat floating in a sea of possible companions.
Sticks and stones will break our bones, but words will break our hearts.
'Who do you think you are?' That's the big one, isn't it? A flourishing life depends on how you answer that.
All I really need to know... I learned in kindergarten.
The examined life is no picnic.
Be aware of wonder. Live a balanced life - learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.
My goal now is to dance all the dances as long as I can, and then to sit down contented after the last elegant tango some sweet night and pass on because there wasn't another dance left in me.
Everything we do in our growing up has been done before. But it needs recognition and validation each time for each one of us - public, private, and secret.
Don't worry that children never listen to you; worry that they are always watching you.
