It is not in life, but in art that self-fulfillment is to be found.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Life finds its purpose and fulfillment in the expansion of happiness.
No matter what is happening in life or in the world - war, natural disaster, poor health, pain, the death of loved ones - if existence is filled with art, music and literature, life will be fulfilling, a joy.
The goal of art was the vital expression of self.
I don't want life to imitate art. I want life to be art.
Art is the proper task of life.
I wish to lead a life free from care, and I see that I shall be unhappy if I cannot always work at my art.
I profoundly feel that the art of living is the art of giving. You're fulfilled in the moment of giving, of doing something beyond yourself.
Each of us must become impassioned, finding meaning and self-fulfillment in our own life's journey.
The art of life is to live in the present moment, and to make that moment as perfect as we can by the realization that we are the instruments and expression of God Himself.
There is no fulfillment in things whatsoever. And I think one of the reasons that depression reigns supreme amongst the rich and famous is some of them thought that maybe those things would bring them happiness. But what, in fact, does is having a cause, having a passion. And that's really what gives life's true meaning.
