“You are free, because everyone is too busy fussing over themselves to worry all that much about you. Go be whomever you want to be, then. Do whatever you want to do. Pursue whatever fascinates you and brings you to life. Create whatever you want to create—and let it be stupendously imperfect, because it’s exceedingly likely that nobody will even notice. And that’s awesome.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear

“Everyone has talent. What's rare is the courage to follow it to the dark places where it leads.”

“The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.”
― Daniel J. Boorstin

“Don't be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.”
