Here are our favourite quotes right now:

"I have often wondered what was the source of her beauty, her radiance. It's not the size of one's nose, the colour of one's skin, the shape of one's lips or eyes that make one beautiful or ugly. So what is it? Can you, as a woman, tell me?
I shook my head.
I will tell you: It's love. Love makes us beautiful. Do you know a single person who loves and is loved, who is loved unconditionally and who, at the same time is ugly? There's no need to ponder the question. There is no such person." Jan-Philipp Sendker from the Art of Hearing Heartbeats

"Every child is an artist, the problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up." Pablo Picasso

"The essence of a thing is invisible to the eye, U May said. Learn to perceive the essence of a thing. Eyes are more likely to hinder you in that regard. They distract us. We love to be dazzled." Jan-Philpp Sendker

"She wasn't doing anything that I could see, except standing there, leaning on the balcony railing, holding the universe together." J.D. Salinger

"I like nonsense. It wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living." Dr. Seuss

from our fave comic strip Calvin and Hobbes:

"Calvin: You can't just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.
Hobbes: What mood is that?
Calvin: Last- minute panic"

"Put on Christ!" in your life, and you will find a friend in whom you can always trust, "put on Christ"and you will see the wings of hope spreading and letting you journey with joy towards the future, "put on Christ" and your life will be full of his love; it will be a fruitful life." Pope Francis

"Don't ever think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it's good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding make even more art." Andy Warhol

"Sometimes your only available transportation is a leap of faith" Margaret Shepard

and another from our beloved Papa Francisco:

"Sing to the Lord a new song" (Psalm 95:1). What is this new song? It does not consist of words, it is not a melody, it is the song of your life, it is allowing our life to be identified with that of Jesus, it is sharing his sentiments, his thoughts, his actions. And the life of Jesus is a life for others. It is a life of service."  Pope Francis
