"All that we call ideal in Greek or any other art, because to us it is false and visionary, was, to the makers of it, true and existent." "In order that people may be happy in their work, these three things are needed: They must be fit for it. They must not do too much of it. And they must have a sense of success in it."

Cobb "Begin – to begin is half the work, let half still remain; again begin this, and thou wilt have finished."― Marcus Aurelius "It’s definitely a dream come true to be recognized and to be able to sign autographs. But, it’s also a lot of hard work and can be draining. If you don’t know already, you will quickly learn who your real friends are."― Christina Aguilera
