#quotes #robert-quillen #ignorance

#quotes #edgar-degas #art #attitude

The uniquely human mental process called worrying depends upon having a brain that can reason, remember, reflect, feel, and imagine. Only humans have a brain big enough to do this simultaneously and do it well. ~Edward Hallowell
