More quotes by Julia Cameron
Creativity occurs in the moment, and in the moment we are timeless.
Julia Cameron
All too often, it is audacity and not talent that moves an artist to center stage.
Julia Cameron
Judging your early artistic efforts is artist abuse. . . Remember that in order to recover as an artist, you must be willing to be a bad artist. Give yourself permission to be a beginner. By being willing to be a bad artist, you have a chance to be an artist, and perhaps, over time, a very good one
Julia Cameron
It is the use of creativity which heals the creative wound.
Julia Cameron
Soul is not about function it's about beauty, form, and memory.
Julia Cameron

Julia Cameron
If you are too busy to develop your talents, you are too busy.
Julia Cameron
Perfectionism is not a quest for the best. It is a pursuit of the worst in ourselves, the part that tells us that nothing we do will ever be good enough - that we should try again.
Julia Cameron
There is no such thing as being done with an artistic life. Frustrations and rewards exist at all levels on the path.
Julia Cameron
If we lean into what we love instead of soldiering toward what we 'should,' our pace quickens, our energy rises, optimism sets in. What we love is nutritious for us.
Julia Cameron
It is the inner commitment to be true to ourselves and follow our dreams that triggers the support of the universe.
Julia Cameron
I am breathing in and out. Realizing this, I began to notice that each moment was not without its beauty.
Julia Cameron
Sometimes the dying live more fiercely and wisely than the rest of us. (146)
