A creative person has to create. It doesn't really matter what you create. If such a dancer wanted to go out and build the cactus gardens where he could, in Mexico, let him do that, but something that is creative has to go on. --Katherine Dunham

Always striving for perfection,
Reaching further, higher.
Raising the bar till unattainable
And falling into the fire.
Thoughts of never being good enough
Are much like being stoned.
And we fall into the depths of darkness
Where we’re all forever alone.
