Keep me sane.

“I always felt that if you do something you love, you should find a way to get paid for it. That is one reason I became an illustrator. I could always do work on my own and if I was lucky enough to sell a painting and make some extra money that was good fortune. Illustration didn’t come naturally to me — I worked very hard to understand how to make my illustration work more ‘commercial’ and acceptable. My natural inclination and ability is towards the fine arts, which I continue to do and always have done throughout the years.”

– Barbara Nessim

Time, time, time.

Where you come from is gone, where you thought you were going to was never there… Where is there a place for you to be? No place… Nothing outside you can give you any place… In yourself right now is all the place you’ve got.
— Flannery O’Connor (via likeafieldmouse)
