| Bio: | Some days:
I wish I were a bodhisattva.
I want to be a professor of Latin American art history--even though all four of those words are contentious.
I would rather be creating art than studying it.
I love people so much it hurts.
I actually like sparring at Tae Kwon Do.
I am quixotic.
I want to be anywhere but where I am.
I miss people I barely knew.
I want to spend every moment learning more.
I cry at the news.
I think I'll never know enough.
I wish I could learn languages faster.
I am more judgemental than I'd like.
I can't stop loving the universe.
And some days not.
Ralph Waldo Emerson:
"What I must do is all that concerns me, not what the people think. This rule, equally arduous in actual and in intellectual life, may serve for the whole distinction between greatness and meanness. It is the harder because you will always find those who think they know what is your duty better than you know it. It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great [wo]man is [s]he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude." |
