It is all very well to copy what one sees, but it is far better to draw what one now only sees in one's memory. That is a transformation in which imagination collaborates with memory.

A gentle word, a kind look, a good-natured smile...If you listen through the screen of your desires...My appointed work is to awaken the divine nature...Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment...The past cannot be changed...Freedom lies in being bold...
