― George Harrison

“There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance.

Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life.”
