Wealth and want equally harden the human heart. Great joy, especially after a sudden change of circumstances, is apt to be silent, and dwells rather in the heart than on the tongue. -Theodore Parker.

Sometimes I think the human heart is just a simple shelf. There is only so much you can pile onto it before something falls off an edge and you are left to pick up the pieces.

The human heart is the same the world over.

The artist vocation is to send light into the human heart.

Time is life itself, and life resides in the human heart.
