"I think truth and passion interest me so much because when I talk to people, I find that everybody has passion, but not everyone can talk about that passion in a way that's truthful or they don't have the courage to paint it or write it."
-John Jacobsen
"I have not noticed that. I think that people who are really passionate are always very explicit about it. And when that passion is lukewarm you can live with it and not express it but otherwise people are really out there. If people really care for something than they act upon it."
-Isabel Allende
This makes me question my life, and question why I do what I do. How many times have I gone to start a story or an art piece and not been able to finish it because I don't know how? I feel as though the topics and truths of those pieces are things that I am passionate about, but if that was true than I would act upon it. It makes me observe the things that I act upon and realize that I am passionate about those things. I can learn about my heart through my actions.
