Today is the birthday of the following people:
Claude Monet (1840 -1926):
“I must have flowers, always, and always.”
and
“Every day I discover more and more beautiful things. It’s
enough to drive one mad. I have such a desire to do everything. My head is
bursting with it.”
and
“It's on the strength of observation and reflection that one
finds a way. So we must dig and delve unceasingly.”
and
“The more I live, the more I regret how little I know.”
Aaron Copland (1900 – 1990):
"I adore extravagance but I abhor waste."
and
"I don't compose. I assemble materials."
and
"So long as the human spirit thrives on this planet, music in
some living form will accompany and sustain it."
Karen Armstrong (1944 - ):
“Surely it's better to love others, however messy and
imperfect the involvement, than to allow one's capacity for love to harden.”
and
“Look into your own heart, discover what it is that gives you
pain and then refuse, under any circumstance whatsoever, to inflict that pain
on anybody else.”
