Breathing joy and talent
Well, this was not exactly a successful day. Proof to be seen right underneath.
Maybe I shouldn't have started with the most cheesiest quote, I could find:
"We can grow, swell with pride, and breathe better for having so many remarkable talents. To do so, however, we must stop ranking both people and talents and accept the fact that there are many roads to truth and no culture has a corner on the path or is better equipped than others to search for it. Furthermore, no man can tell another how to conduct that search." (Hall, E., Beyond Culture, p.7)


Didn't want to jump so obviously at the metaphor with the road/path. Well, I guess, that worked out. Welcome to kitsch!
But I just needed to start somewhere....
