Julia Cameron quotes

What we really want to do is what we are really meant to do. When we do what we are meant to do, money comes to us, doors open for us, we feel useful, and the work we do feels like play to us.

Creativity is always a leap of faith. You're faced with a blank page, blank easel, or an empty stage.

'Faith and Will' sprang from my personal experience with passing through a dark spiritual time.

Art used to be made in the name of faith. We made cathedrals, we made stained-glass windows, we made murals.

A God Jar is anything you wish it to be, in which you can put your wishes, dreams, problems, prayers. You may want to think of it as a spiritual mailbox.

Perfectionism is not a quest for the best. It is a pursuit of the worst in ourselves, the part that tells us that nothing we do will ever be good enough - that we should try again.
