“Your dream of being discovered by the public will become the burden of being defined.”
― Kent Nerburn, Dancing with the Gods: Reflections on Life and Art

“When you allow your fear or your insecurity or your unrealistic belief in perfection too control you, you are betraying that possibility of life. You are saying that you do not have faith in the artistic child born of the union between your imagination and your talent. You are measuring your art by your own standards of excellence rather than trusting your art and letting it make its way into the hearts of others by its own devices.”
― Kent Nerburn, Dancing with the Gods: Reflections on Life and Art

“All work nourishes the soul of your creative imagination. And all work increases your understanding of your craft. Sometimes a work takes a flower, sometimes it merely enriches the soil. And sometimes the seed of an idea, long abandoned and even forgotten, emerges suddenly in a place where it was least expected. And sometimes the blooms that it produces are the most beautiful of al.”

“The greater your success, the greater the forces that will try to confine you.”
