Art for art's sake is an empty phrase. Art for the sake of truth, art for the sake of the good and the beautiful, that is the faith I am searching for.

Quote or CounterQuote
Once I have decided on a topic, I run a search on several sites and find quotes that are relevant. Quotes that can support my opinions, offer inspiration and can further illustrate some of the fine points I want to make.
Our culture is obsessed with soundbytes – tiny little bits of speeches, books, and the sort that we use to sum up an entire viewpoint. And while the quotes are most often used in content, please keep in mind that I may not be aware of its original source material nor the biographical history of those quoted. Some might even been excerpted from books and are fictional in nature. Regardless of the quote’s origin; please understand it is my full intention to only use them in uplift and support.
If you find any quote unattributed or incorrectly sourced please feel free to leave me a note and I will do my best to correct the error. If the quote is used out of context - understand that MY intent is that which is stated.
I will often use some that I will call “CounterQuotes”. This will be an opinion that although the author felt was appropriate for whatever reason runs counter to my philosophy. Most often it will be a belief that I either held previously or was firmly ingrained into my worldview. In my paradigm shift I have found the statement/belief to be “faulty thinking” and find it runs counter to my current perspective. I find counter-quotes helpful because they can be used to show the idea from other sides.
So I hope that you enjoy this part of Talk:Think:Share and its accompanying graphics. Feel free to look around the rest of the site, listen to the podcasts and join in on the discussion. It is my sincere wish that you use this to enrich your outlook and your life. And then do the same for others.
In Love, Stephanie Rae
