More From Martha Beck
- "We virtually never feel our age, but thinking that we should can lead to disaster."
- "Hopeful thinking can get you out of your fear zone and into your appreciation zone."
- "No one else can take risks for us, or face our losses on our behalf, or give us self-esteem. No one can spare us from life’s slings and arrows, and when death comes, we meet it alone."
More In Art
- "Barack Obama’s life was so much simpler in 2009. Back then, he had refined the cold act of blaming others for the bad economy into an art form. Deficits? Blame Bush’s tax cuts. Spending? Blame the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. No business investment? Blame Wall Street."― John Sununu
- "No heirloom of humankind captures the past as do art and language."― Theodore Bikel
- "The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing without work."― Emile Zola
