"I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. 

                             Imagination is more important than knowledge . Knowledge is limited .
                             Imagination encircles the world "
                          ~ Albert Einstein

" What was any art but a mold to imprison for a moment the shining elusive element 
which is life itself - life hurrying past us and running away , too strong to stop , too 
sweet to lose ."
~Willa Cather

in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that 
reveals the human spirit."
