Look Up Through the Treetops 

“The sensitive ear of the musician

detects a certain musical note

in every city which is different

from that of another city. 

He hears in each little brook

a new melody, and to him

the sound of wind

in the treetops of different forests 

give a varying sound.”

~ Max Heindel

The Guitar Man

“I think it’s so cool that you 

can pick up the guitar and

create something that didn’t

exist 5 minutes ago. 

You can write something 

that no one’s ever heard before. 

You have music at your fingertips.”

~ Michelle Branch

Take a Seat at the Table

“You should make something.

You should bring something

into the world

that wasn’t in the world before. 

It doesn’t matter what it is. 

It doesn’t matter if it’s a table

or a film

or gardening-

everyone should create. 

You should do something,

then sit back and say,

‘I did that.'”

~ Ricky Gervais

The Beauty in Glass

“That we find a crystal

or a poppy beautiful

means that we are less alone,

that we are more deeply inserted

into existence than

the course of a single life

would lead us to believe.”
~ John Berger

A Feeling of Abandonment 

“Here is the tragedy:

when you are the victim of depression,

not only do you feel

utterly helpless and

abandoned by the world,

you also know that very few people

can understand,

or even begin to believe,

that life can be this painful.”

~ Giles Andreae

March to the Beat of a Different Drummer

“Whether things turn out for the better

depends on what we do. 

We ought not spend our time

masterminding the future,

but recognize our marching orders:

to do the best we can

for history and the planet.”

~ Huston Smith
