Elizabeth Gilbert
“Every artist complains, so it’s a dead and boring topic. (From the volume of complaints that emerges from the professional creative class, you would think these people had been sentenced to their vocations by an evil dictator, rather than having chosen their work with a free will and an open heart.) Second, of course it’s difficult to create things; if it wasn’t difficult, everyone would be doing it, and it wouldn’t be special or interesting. Third, nobody ever really listens to anybody else’s complaints, anyhow, because we’re all too focused on our own holy struggle, so basically you’re just talking to a brick wall. Fourth, and most important, you’re scaring away inspiration.
here’s a trick: Stop complaining.”
Elizabeth Gilbert, Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear

Arianne Richmonde
“Benjamin Franklin felt that it was wrong that the bald eagle was chosen as the emblem for our nation. He said the bald eagle had bad moral character because he did not get his living honestly… too lazy to fish for himself… Benjamin Franklin said this, that the bald eagle stole from the fish hawk and that the turkey was a more respectable bird and a true native of America.”
Arianne Richmonde, The Newlyweds

Dietrich Bonhoeffer
“we shall never again try to convince a fool by reason, for it is both useless and dangerous.”
