Martha Graham to Agnes de Mille...

"There is a vitality, a lifeforce, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique.  And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost.  The world will not have it.  It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open.  You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work.  You have to keep yourself open and aware of the urges that motivate you.  Keep the channel open... No artist is pleased (there is) no satisfaction what(so)ever at any time.  There is only a queer divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others."

A Sarah quote...

"Hey, if you're not going to embrace my creativity, then back off!"

The cake says, "We Told U So!"  This was my kids' creation that was their way of proving to me they could decorate a cake as good as the cake decorators on Food Network!  It was yummy, but I'm still coming down off the sugar high I got from it! :)

A Passage from The Sermon on the Mount by Emmet Fox

"If only you will find out the thing God intends for you to do, and will do it, you will find that all doors will open to you; all obstacles in your path will melt away; you will be acclaimed a brilliant success; you will be most liberally rewarded from the monetary point of view; and you will be gloriously happy.
   There is a true place in life for each one of us, upon the attainment of which we shall be completely happy, and perfectly secure.  On the other hand, until we find our true place we never shall be either happy or secure, no matter what other things we may have.  Our true place is the one place where we can bring the Kingdom of God into manifestation, and truly say, "Thy kingdom cometh."
