a funny story...
So I went camping this weekend with some of my buds from venturers. Well sorta camping, we were volunteering to clean up and BURN debree from the wind storms at camp Byng. Anyways, all was fun, quite a bit of work. I was really tired by the time we got to the fairy this afternoon. After sitting down in the waiting room I ended up passing out taking up two seats. I didn't know how much time had gone by when I heard the voice, but apparently it had been about 30 min. The voice sounded so familliar to me but I couldn't put my finger on it. Then like a bomb it hit me, it was WILL the bus driver from the California rugby trip I went on. I woke up and looked over and there he was! He didn't notice me and walked out to sit down on the bench outside. I was still tired, but in shock as I walked up to the window to try to get his attention and say hi. I was apparently tapping on the window like I was drunk. But anyways, I ended up getting his attention and saying hi. What a small world. He was returning to Vancouver with a group of choir students with, get this, the same bus that we had on our trip! AHAHA...well it seemed interesting to me.

Favorite Art "Quotes"
I believe that if it were left to artists to choose their own labels, most would choose none.
Ben Shahn (1898 - 1969)

Art is born of the observation and investigation of nature.
Cicero (106 BC - 43 BC)

A painting in a museum hears more ridiculous opinions than anything else in the world.
Edmond de Goncourt (1822 - 1896)

Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.
Henry Ward Beecher (1813 - 1887), Proverbs from Plymouth Pulpit, 1887

It doesn't matter if people are interested. It's about you taking your stuff and shouting out into the void.
Jadelr and Cristina Cordova, Chasing Windmills, 07-11-2006

To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.
Joseph Chilton Pearce

The creation of art is not the fulfillment of a need but the creation of a need. The world never needed Beethoven's Fifth Symphony until he created it. Now we could not live without it.
Louis I Kahn

Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.
Pablo Picasso (1881 - 1973)

There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality.
Pablo Picasso (1881 - 1973)

Who first seduc'd them to the foul revolt?
Th' infernal Serpent; he it was, whose guile
Stir'd up with Envy and Revenge, deceiv'd
The Mother of Mankind, what time his Pride
Had cast him out from Heav'n, with all his Host
Of Rebel Angels, by whose aid aspiring
To set himself in Glory above his Peers,
He trusted to have equal'd the most High,
If he oppos'd; and with ambitious aim
Against theThrone and Monarchy of God
Rais'd impious War in heav'n and Battel proud
With vain attempt. Him the almighty Power
Hurl'd headlong flaming from th' Ethereal Skie
With hideous ruine and combustion down
To the bottomless perdition, there to dwell....

O Prince, O Cheif of many Throned Powers,
That led th' imbattell'd Seraphim to Warr
Under thy conduct, and in dreadful deeds
Fearless, endanger'd Heav'n's perpetual Kings;
And put to proof his high Suprmacy,
Whether upheld by the strength, or Chance, or Fate,
Too well I see and rue the dire event,
That with sad overthrow and foul defeat
Hath lost us Heav'n, and all this mighty Host
In horrible destrution laid thus low,
As far as Gods and Heav'nly Essences
Can Perish: for the mind and spirit remains
Invincible, and vigour soon returns,
Though all our Glory extinct, and happy state
Here swallow'd up in endless misery....

To reign is worth ambition though in Hell:
Better to reign in Hell, then serve in Heav'n.
But wherefore let we then our faithful friends,
Th' associates and copartners of our loss
Lye thus astonisht on th' oblivious Pool,
And call them not to share with us their part
In this unhappy Mansion, or once more
With rallied Arms to try what may be yet
Regain'd in Heav'n, or what more lost in Hell?

--- John Milton, Paradise Lost, Book 1
