I am always looking for inspirational quotes.


I am always looking for inspirational quotes. I came across an artist Susan O'Malley. Her art was about using inspirational quotes to inspire others. Please read below, I found this story on her after I bought her book.
Artist and curator Susan O'Malley passed away at only 38-years-old. O'Malley was in her last week of pregnancy with twins when she collapsed and never regained consciousness. Sadly, her daughters passed away with her.
The large body of work that she left behind is especially well-suited for helping the community cope. O'Malley's work was grounded in inspiration, optimism, and positivity. O'Malley had been working on a series called "Advice From My 80-year-old Self." interviewing people in the area, asking them "What advice would your 80-year-old self-give you?" O'Malley explains her motivation for the project: “ I think it’s easy to forget how wise we can be. We resist our internal wisdom because of fear, fatigue, inconvenience or any number of reasons. Hearing other people’s advice reminds me that we are different versions of each other. And sometimes other people’s words magically express exactly what I’m thinking but can’t seem to pull together. My hope is that these quotes will reflect back to our inner brilliance and perhaps allow a brief space to gently listen to our own advice.
"All of O’Malley’s work, both as artist and curator, reflected a rare generosity and empathy for those around her. “Making the world a better place. Staying positive in a world that does the opposite.”
Susan I am inspired right on!
