“Make big plans …that’s the best way to make big things happen. Write down your plans. Share them with trusted colleagues. Seek out team members and accomplices. Shun the non-believers. They won’t be easily convinced, but they can be ignored. Is there any doubt that making big plans increases the chances that something great will happen? Is there any doubt that we need your art and your contribution? Why then, are you hesitating to make big plans?”

“wanted to wait until the day after. I like everyone weak with orgasm and dizzy with chocolate and pollen. With just the rustle of covers I am apt to pay tribute to my hankering. The morning-after loses the pretense of night. I can lay out my palm and you will see the lines of my fortune. I have no gladness in plastic hearts rushing red into expectation. At first light, I hear your breath and this is only the beginning of my lust. Your morning words press against my chest and cheek like a pet’s paw. Your voice is lusty like longing, every time you speak. I had to tell you one day late, it was our love St. Valentine died for. We were secreted to the woods to pledge our promise. It is our sacred heart torn in two. I left sacrifice waiting outside the door, all doomsday and impatience. Now, a few hours further, I stretch bare before you like a slightly bent bow. I am primed for your caress. I am a bubble in the sun. It’s for you I shine.”

“There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep yourself open and aware to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open… .” Martha Graham”
