my girlfriend has the most beautiful heart. (she can draw a purty one, too!)
ā¦I remember something Louis Armstrong once said, after being asked to give his opinion on some very trite, badly orchestrated songs heād just heard. He said something about how, even with the worst music, he could see God trying to shine through.
Sometimes you have to watch somebody love something before you can love it yourself. It is as if they are showing you the way.
To believe your own thought, to believe that what is true for you in your private heart is true for all men, ā that is genius. Speak your latent conviction, and it shall be the universal sense; for the inmost in due time becomes the outmost,āā and our first thought is rendered back to us by the trumpets of the Last Judgment. Familiar as the voice of the mind is to each, the highest merit we ascribe to Moses, Plato, and Milton is, that they set at naught books and traditions, and spoke not what men but what they thought. A man should learn to detect and watch that gleam of light which flashes across his mind from within, more than the lustre of the firmament of bards and sages. Yet he dismisses without notice his thought, because it is his. In every work of genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts: they come back to us with a certain alienated majesty. Great works of art have no more affecting lesson for us than this. They teach us to abide by our spontaneous impression with good-humored inflexibility then most when the whole cry of voices is on the other side. Else, to-morrow a stranger will say with masterly good sense precisely what we have felt and thought all the time, and we shall be forced to take with shame our own opinion from another.

there is still a whole world of love left inside of me. even still.
