Quotes<\/strong><\/p>\n

“For the marketer, the freelancer and the entrepreneur, the challenge is to level set, to be comfortable with the undone, with the cycle of never-ending. We were trained to finish our homework, our peas and our chores. Today, we’re never finished, and that’s okay.
\nIt’s a dance, not an endless grind.<\/em>” — Seth Godin<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI feel that all you can do is give it your absolute best with whatever gifts the universe has given you. And if you make it in some way that other people can recognize, that\u2019s fine. But even if you don\u2019t quote-unquote make it, you\u2019re fine, if you\u2019ve given it your whole heart and soul. You\u2019re totally in sync with your purpose and with the universe. And that\u2019s fine.<\/em>\u201d \u2013 Alice Walker<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIf a photographer cares about the people before the lens and is compassionate, much is given. It is the photographer, not the camera, that is the instrument.<\/em>\u201d \u2013 Eve Arnold<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"captive\"

I find this to be a disturbing image, mostly because of the sculpture titled “The City Destroyed” by Ossip Badkine, supposedly representing anguish at the destruction of Rotterdam in WWII, but I think the strongly contrasting background and the broken windows add to the feeling.
