Philippe Halsman Quote

"...In other artforms the artist can start from nothing - an empty canvas, a lump of clay - then follow his imagination. The photographer, however, must first point his camera at concrete reality before he can photograph what is in his mind. No other artform can create an image with greater ease. The difficulty lies in creating an image with a uniqueness of beauty that will make it a work of art. "

Marianne Williamson Quote

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

- Marianne Williamson
