If the universe is a bowl that collects the sounds we create, let’s put good things, delicious and decadent, serious and silly, prickly and pungent, interesting, contemplative and heartfelt things in the bowl.
(Martin Luther King Jr Day, 1/19/2009)
“There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening, that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique.
If you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and will be lost. The world will not have it.
It is not your business to determine how good it is, nor how valuable it is, nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours, clearly and directly, to keep the channel open.”
– Martha Graham in a letter to Agnes DeMille
