Hi Bonnie,
Thanks for the quote on love and talent.
I think we all love that great picture of you
on your website, with your giant pots!

Don't know about the Shakespeare quote,
but how about this one on love and action
from Mother Teresa:
"We cannot do great things-
we can only do little things,
with great love."

"Love that is not expressed in loving actions does not really exist, just as
talent that does not express itself in creative works does not exist;
neither of these is a state of mind, or feeling, but an activity or it is a
myth."

Dear Clayarters,
I would like share with you the words from an inspiring quotation, author
unknown. I wrote it on my chalk board in my studio and it remained there
for many years. Finally a friend who did calligraphy wrote it on parchment
for me as a gift.
"Love that is not expressed in loving actions does not really exist, just as
talent that does not express itself in creative works does not exist;
neither of these is a state of mine, or feeling, but an activity or it is a
myth."
Long ago I also had a similar observation written by William Shakespeare in
much less words but I cannot find it. Anyone know of this?
Hope you enjoy.
Love, Bonnie

Mark Twain/Samuel Clemens said, " I care not for a man's religion, whose =
dog
is not the better for it."
Not Shakespeare, but shorter, and with a sharper point!

Bonnie; I love your quotation! As for The Billy Shakespeare thing how
about- To be or not to be, that is the question!
Cheers,
