Criss Jami
“The artist is often misunderstood because, stepping outside himself and holding most details in great tension, he’s about as complex as a shape-shifter; or a head with faces on all sides, but not necessarily in the negative connotation as one being two-faced usually implies.”
Criss Jami, Killosophy

Criss Jami, Killosophy

Criss Jami
“The barrier during self-improvement is not so much that we hate learning, rather we hate being taught. To learn entails that the knowledge was achieved on one's own accord - it feels great - but to be taught often leaves a feeling of inferiority. Thus it takes a bit of determination and a lot of humility in order for one to fully develop.”
Criss Jami, Killosophy

Oprah Winfrey
“Whatever your calling, it's already rooted within you, and those roots can be trampled or tugged at but never removed. They grow stronger only when tended, nurtured, and most important, shared with others.”
Oprah Winfrey, The Path Made Clear: Discovering Your Life's Direction and Purpose
