s.id.

 
“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.” – Steve Jobs


“Everyone has been made for some particular work, and the desire for that work has been put in every heart.” – Rumi


“When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bounds. Your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.” – Patanjali


“I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: ‘If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?’ And whenever the answer has been ‘No’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.” – Steve Jobs


“Yes, I’ve made a great deal of dough from my fiction, but I never set a single word down on paper with the thought of being paid for it … I have written because it fulfilled me … I did it for the buzz. I did it for the pure joy of the thing. And if you can do it for joy, you can do it forever.” – Stephen King


“If it falls your lot to be a street sweeper, go out and sweep streets like Michelangelo painted pictures. Sweep streets like Handel and Beethoven composed music. Sweep streets like Shakespeare wrote poetry. Sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will have to pause and say, here lived a great street sweeper who swept his job well.” – Martin Luther King, Jr.


“Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy.” – Kahlil Gibran


“I think people who are creative are the luckiest people on earth. I know that there are no shortcuts, but you must keep your faith in something Greater than You, and keep doing what you love. Do what you love, and you will find the way to get it out to the world.” – Judy Collins


“The secret of joy in work is contained in one word – excellence. To know how to do something well is to enjoy it.” – Pearl S. Buck


“The law of work seems unfair, but nothing can change it; the more enjoyment you get out of your work, the more money you will make.” – Mark Twain


“The people who make it to the top – whether they’re musicians, or great chefs, or corporate honchos – are addicted to their calling … [they] are the ones who’d be doing whatever it is they love, even if they weren’t being paid.” – Quincy Jones


“Never continue in a job you don’t enjoy. If you’re happy in what you’re doing, you’ll like yourself, you’ll have inner peace. And if you have that, along with physical health, you will have had more success than you could possibly have imagined.” – Johnny Carson

Aqui fica a minha gratidão por tudo e por todos os que me inspiram

Fonte: Bruaá Editora

Condeno o plágio, o roubo de ideias mas acredito na inspiração partindo da criação dos outros. Esta é inevitável. Considero a transcrição, a cópia, o vulgarizado copy/paste das palavras, ideias, trabalho dos outros elogiosa, uma forma de honrar o objecto que nos inspira e o seu criador mas sempre, sempre citando a fonte, o autor.
Contudo, nada há de errado em partir da arte de terceiros e recriá-la, torná-la nossa. Aliás, penso que não há outra forma de criação. Mas isso implica já o empenho da nossa própria imaginação, experiência e trabalho.
Em qualquer dos casos, fica um sentimento de gratidão por tudo e por todos os que nos inspiram, nem que seja pelo seu modo de vida. Nem que seja simplesmente por existirem e pelo amor e afecto que nos suscitam. Pela forma como enchem a nossa vida. Obrigada. :)
