Passion Quotes
Yes, I know what passion would fill me with all its power. Before, I was too young. I got in the way.

For me there were only two ways on the precipice - either I have to fall in or I have to fall out, to accept or say good-bye.

Freedom comes when the discipline revolutionizes the discipline as a passion for the art.
