It is the commonest of mistakes to consider that the limit of our power of perception is also the limit of all there is to perceive - C. W. Leadbeater

You must not let your life run in the ordinary way; do something that nobody else has done, something that will dazzle the world. Show that Nature's creative principle works in you.

Each person comes into this world with a specific destiny--he has something to fulfill, some message has to be delivered, some work has to be completed. You are not here accidentally--you are here meaningfully. There is a purpose behind you. The whole intends to do something through you.- Osho

Kandinsky is widely quoted as saying: "The artist must train not only his eye but also his soul, so that it can weigh colors on its own scale and thus become a determinant in artistic creation".

The darkness is there not to run away from but to face and to transform.

Science only permits direct focus on one form of knowledge attainment, empirical, but artists, seeking to portray all aspects in a physical recreation, allow for multiplicity.

Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.
~The Buddha

Do not go where the path may lead, but go where there is no path and leave a trail.

"...no human inquiry can be called science unless it pursues its path through mathematical exposition and demonstration." -Leonardo da Vinci.
Leonardo applied this concept to art too.


"You never achieve success unless you like what you are doing." - Dale Carnegie

"Those who are enamored of practice without science are like a pilot who goes into a ship without rudder or compass and never has any certainty where he is going. Practice should always be based upon a sound knowledge of theory, of which perspective is the guide and gateway, and without it nothing can be done well in any kind of painting."


To understand the importance of your uniqueness, realise that in the history of mankind until now, and ever hereafter, there can never be another you. So remain unique and be yourself.

Winners do the things that less developed people don't like doing even though they also might not enjoy doing them. That is what strength of character & courage is all about.

“All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree. All these aspirations are directed toward ennobling man's life, lifting it from the sphere of mere physical existence and leading the individual towards freedom.”
Albert Einstein

Art is the process of creating a very personal view of the world. Science is the process of creating a very impersonal view of the world.

'Art upsets, Science reassures' - Georges Braque

St. Francis said, "He who works with his hands is a laborer. He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. He who works with his hands and head and heart is an artist."

"Religion hinges upon faith, politics hinges upon who can tell the most convincing lies or maybe just shout the loudest, but science hinges upon whether its conclusions resemble what actually happens."

Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (1475-1564) was perhaps more a sculptor at heart than he was a painter, and thus Vasari quoted him saying, "I cannot live under pressures from patrons, let alone paint."

"A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."

A half truth, like half a brick, is always more forcible as an argument than a whole one. It carries better - Stephen Leacock
