Temptations, when we first meet them, are like a lion that roared at Samson; but if we overcome them, the next time we see them we shall find a nest of honey within them. – John Bunyan
He who has made a thousand things and he who has made none, both feel the same desire: to make something. – Antonio Porchia, Voces, 1943, translated from Spanish by W.S. Merwin
