HOKUSAI

All that I have produced before the age of 70 is not worth taking into account.
When I am 80 I shall have made more progress.
At 90 I will penetrate the mystery of things.
At 100 I shall have reached a marvellous age, and when I am 110 everything I do, be it but a dot or a line, will be alive.

RABINDRANATH TAGORE

I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.

KIRSTEN ZAMBUCKA

Though I might travel afar, I will meet only what I carry with me, for every man is a mirror. We see only ourselves reflected in those around us. Their attitudes and actions are only a reflection of our own. The whole world and its condition has its counterparts within all of us. Turn the gaze inward. Correct yourself - and your world will change.
