Our visions begin with our desires.
~ Audre Lorde
A warrior must always keep in mind that a path is only a path;
if he feels that he should not follow it,
he must not stay with it under any conditions.
His decision to keep on that path or to leave it
must be free of fear or ambition.
He must look at every path closely and deliberately.
There is a question that a warrior has to ask, mandatorily:
'Does this path have a heart?'
— Carlos Castaneda

Life forms illogical patterns. It is haphazard and full of beauties which I try to catch as they fly by,
for who knows whether any of them will ever return? — Margot Fonteyn
Experience counts, but you can't beat luck.

I don't want to get to the end of my life and find that I lived just the length of it.
I want to have lived the wits of it as well.
— Diane Ackerman
Oh I know in my heart,
in the sun-quickend, blossoming soul of me,
this something called self is apart
but the world is the whole of me!
I am one with these growers,
these singers, these earnest becomers,
co-heirs of the summers to be and past eons of summers.
— John Neihardt, author of Black Elk Speaks,
had a real sense of the cosmos, and relation
to what he liked to call "the music of what happens."
Black Elk called Neihardt a "word sender".
