Quotes and Notes, #326, September 26
“If people knew how hard I had to work to gain my mastery, it would not seem so wonderful at all.”—Michelangelo Buonarroti—
My sister is an artist. One time she and I discussed an illustration that was needed. I watched her as she put a line here, a line there. She paused and then put a curve in one place and another curve beside it. Carefully, then, she tied the lines together, did some shading, and ended up with the perfect solution to the problem.
I was impressed and remarked, “And all it took was a few minutes.”
“Yes,” she replied, as she looked at me and smiled, “That and twenty years.”
I learned something that day.
Share a smile of confidence wherever you are today.
Everything is going to be all right
