“I've seen women insist on cleaning everything in the house before they could sit down to write... and you know it's a funny thing about housecleaning... it never comes to an end. Perfect way to stop a woman. A woman must be careful to not allow over-responsibility (or over-respectabilty) to steal her necessary creative rests, riffs, and raptures. She simply must put her foot down and say no to half of what she believes she "should" be doing. Art is not meant to be created in stolen moments only.”
― Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Women Who Run With the Wolves

“The flower doesn’t dream of the bee. It blossoms and the bee comes.”
― Mark Nepo

“The problem with introspection is that it has no end.”
― Philip K. Dick

“When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better, too.”
― Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
