Science is not a matter of opinion; there is only one truth.

A man paints with his brains and not with his hands - Michelangelo

A great artist is always before his time or behind it - George Edward

The job of the artist is always to deepen the mystery - Francis Bacon

Land really is the best art - Andy Warhol

"Art is not what you see but what others make you see"

-French Artist, Edgar Degas

The best scientists themselves are usually artists - Einstein

Normal is not something to aspire to, it's something to get away from - Jodie Foster

Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people - Eleanor Roosevelt

People have opinions about art, whereas science is a bit more concrete.

“All art should become science and all science art,” declared the German Romantic poet Friedrich Schlegel

Einstein once declared, "Creativity is the residue of time wasted."

When people asked Leonardo da Vinci the secret of his creative and inventing genius, he replied “Saper Vedere,” - to know how to see.

Saper vedere, Sapio audacter …sapere aude
To see is to know – dare to know …dare to be wise-think boldly!

Words have more influence when tied to an identity.

Ideas are not set in stone. When exposed to thoughtful people, they morph and adapt into their most potent form.

"An artist sells what he paints. A painter paints what he sells."- Pablo Picasso

John Cleese - “Creativity is not a talent. It is a way of operating.”

Creativity is combining and connecting things:

Successful scientists have often been people with wide interests. Their originality may have derived from their diverse knowledge … Originality often consists in linking up ideas whose connection was not previously suspected - Beveridge

Only when they have exhausted all the food , water and air , they will know they cannot eat money!

Oftentimes the right moment to learn the most is when you’ve done something stupid, not necessarily when you’ve triumphed.

An optimist would say the glass is half full, while a pessimist would say it is half empty. I have a third point of view. For me the glass is always full - half with water and half with air .

When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at, change - Wayne Dyer

Rain clouds come floating in, not to muddy my days ahead, but to make me calm, happy and hopeful by Rajuda

Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living by Miriam Beard

When you are at peace with yourself and you love yourself, it’s virtually impossible for you to do things to yourself that are destructive by Wayne Dyer

Comment by Dr. Krishna Kumari Challa on September 10, 2012 at 6:34am: The state of your life is nothing more than a reflection of the state of your mind - Wayne Dyer

Ramana Maharishi says: “For those who have obtained unobstructed knowledge of Self, the world is seen merely as a bondage causing imagination”.

To experience life as it exists, to experience happiness and ecstasy, one has to go beyond all thoughts that anchor us to so-called reality. These thoughts are figments of imagination churned out by an overactive mind.

We tend to believe everything that our mind tells us via thoughts and we act and live our lives according to our belief in these thoughts, most of which are only random raves and rants of the mind. Byron Katie says: “I used to believe my thoughts and I suffered. The day I stopped believing my thoughts, my suffering ended.” Her entire teaching, called ‘the work’ is based on deeply questioning each and every thought, till the falsity of the thought is established, so that we can throw them away, leading ourselves to break free of imprisonment.

You have absolutely NOTHING to give up, nothing to surrender, nothing to let go of. You are already the totally free liberated Self - Robert Adams

The Secret to Peace of mind is to not identify with anything other than your True Self - Robert Adams

Confucius said... "In the world there are many different roads but the destination is the same. There are a hundred deliberations but the result is one." by I Ching

Comment by Dr. Krishna Kumari Challa on August 11, 2012 at 6:40am: This deep self-confidence, uncompromising quest for Truth is a lesson for all of us by Swami Tyagarupananda

An experience teaches ably the good observer; but far from seeking a lesson in it, everyone looks for an argument in experience, and everyone interprets the conclusion in his own way by Andre Gide

Comment by Dr. Krishna Kumari Challa on July 30, 2012 at 6:09am: A man who does not see himself as capable of becoming more than he is is no man!

(bring inspiration, personal growth, love and happiness to your everyday life......) - " Jill Bolte Tylor "

Comment by Dr. Krishna Kumari Challa on July 30, 2012 at 6:01am: How is it that common elements such as carbon, nitrogen and oxygen happened to have just the kind of atomic structure that they needed to combine to make the molecules upon which life depends? Has the universe been consciously designed? - Richard Morris

Buddha
There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth: 1.) not going all the way and 2.) not starting.

Buddha
Your body is precious. It is our vehicle for awakening. Treat it with care.

Buddha
In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then beleive them to be true.

Buddha
However many holy words you read, however many you speak, what good will they do you if you do not act on upon them?

Dada J P Vaswani
The pathway of love is paved with flames. It is only the brave who move on it, step by step.

Swami Vivekananda
We see that the apparent contradictions and perplexities in every RELIGION mark but different stages of growth. The end of all religions is the realizing of God in the soul. That is the one universal religion.'

Dada J P Vaswani
Love is not intelligent: love can only imagine.

Swami Sivananda
Terrible is the fight put up by the senses. Fight bravely! Conquer them you must.

Thomas M Easley
We must admit at least the possibility that everything we believe to be true is not true

Buddha
The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.

There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates people. It is a poison that disintegrates friendships and breaks up pleasant relations. It is a thorn that irritates and hurts; it is a sword that kills.

Comment by Dr. Krishna Kumari Challa on July 24, 2012 at 5:54am: Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.
- Howard Thurman, American author, philosopher, theologian, and civil rights leader

John Jakes

Be yourself. Above all, let who you are, what you are, what you believe, shine through every sentence you write, every piece you assemble.

You are what you want to become. Why search anymore? You are a wonderful manifestation. The whole universe has come together to make your existence possible. There is nothing that is not you.
