"Create and stir other people to create...." - Quote by Robert Frost

“I end not far from my going forth By picking the faded blue Of the last remaining aster flower To carry again to you.”

“Let him that is without stone among you cast the first thing he can lay his hands on.”

“It looked as if a night of dark intent was coming, and not only a night, an age. Someone had better be prepared for rage.”

“All kids draw and write poetry and everything, and some of us last until we're about eighteen, but most drop off at about twelve when some guy comes up and says, "You're no good." That's all we get told all our lives. "You haven't got the ability. You're a cobbler." It happened to all of us, but if somebody had told me all my life, "Yeah, you're a great artist," I would have been a more secure person.”

“How could Michelangelo have seen his David in a block of marble? Man began to make images only because he discovered them nearly formed around him, already within reach. He saw them in a bone, in the bumps of a cave, in a piece of wood. One form suggested a woman to him, another a buffalo, still another the head of a monster.”

“The inspirations of today are the shams of tomorrow the purpose has departed.”

“Hope is born again in the faces of children.”
