Ten Quotations for Writers, and other Creators

"If there's a book you really want to read but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it." ~ Toni Morrison

"Vitality shows in not only the ability to persist but the ability to start over." ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald

And my personal favorite!

"Writing is an act of generosity. Just turn the 'M' in 'Me' over and make it a 'We'." ~ Annie Dillard

What Is the Good Life?

What Is the Good Life?: "Some say a good life is rich in material pleasures, and good feelings—a life of getting, and having. Others say it is a fully engaged life. A life of doing, creating, and enjoying the gratification of mastery in life, work, and relationships.

For others, it is a meaningful life, a giving life, lived in service to a purpose or cause; a spiritual life. But, perhaps, it is not one or another of these options.
Could the good life be the harmonious whole that comes from integrating the three lives into one?"
