Art is only a means to life, to the life more abundant. It is not in itself the life more abundant. It merely points the way, something which is overlooked not only by the public, but very often by the artist himself. In becoming an end it defeats itself.

Henry Miller

We have not invaded anyone. We have not conquered anyone. We have not grabbed their land, their culture, their history and tried to enforce our way of life on them.

Jack Kerouac

Dr. Seuss

I do not know which will be the destiny of each one of you but one thing I know - the only ones among you who will be really happy will be those who have sought and found the way to serve.
