“I always think that the best way to know God is to love many things.”

Great things are not something accidental, but must certainly be willed.

Admire as much as you can. Most people do not admire enough.

What a simple thing death is, just as simple as the falling of an autumn leaf.

Often whole days pass without my speaking to anyone.

Let’s not forget that the little emotions are the great captains of our lives and we obey them without realizing it.

At times it is not easy for me to take up living again.

A great fire burns within me, but no one stops to warm themselves at it, and passers-by only see a wisp of smoke.

One must work and dare if one really wants to live.

If one truly loves nature one finds beauty everywhere.

Drawing is the root of everything.

A woman is not old as long as she loves and is loved.

I long so much to make beautiful things. But beautiful things require effort and disappointment and perseverance.

Art is to console those who are broken by life.

To suffer without complaint is the only lesson we have to learn in this life.

I love my fairy god parents.

Cleanliness is next to godliness yall! was dem hands!

I used to wonder if it was God’s plan that I should be alone for so much of my life. But I found peace. I found happiness within people and the world.

Sometimes I think God is trying to test me, both now and in the future. I’ll have to become a good person on my own, without anyone to serve as a model or advise me, but it’ll make me stronger in the end.

God abhors a naked singularity.

Think not to match yourself against the gods, for men that walk the earth cannot hold their own with the immortals.

Only God can judge me.

I was raised to believe that God has a plan for everyone and that seemingly random twists of fate are all a part of His plan.
