“Let us move into the New Year with a great sense of the thrill of living.”

“The greatest thrill is not to kill but to let live.”

“True and false fears let us refrain, Let us love nobly, and live, and add again Years and years unto years, till we attain To write threescore: this is the second of our reign.”

“For a new year to bring you something new, make a move, like a butterfly tearing its cocoon! Make a move!”

“Let us not neglect the forbidden. Let us not sophisticate ourselves out of the cheap thrill and chill of it: the story told for perversity's sake, and all the better for that; the image created because an artist gets tired of reasons sometimes, and wants to dredge up some picture he's been haunted by, and parade it like a new tattoo. I go with it, readily.”

“God help us to live slowly:To move simply:To look softly:To allow emptiness:To let the heart create for us.Amen.”
