More quotes by Julia Cameron

When we open ourselves to exploring our creativity, we open ourselves to God: good, orderly direction.
Julia Cameron
Sometimes the dying live more fiercely and wisely than the rest of us. (146)
Julia Cameron
Creativity is always a leap of faith. You're faced with a blank page, blank easel, or an empty stage.
Julia Cameron
Try approving of yourself just as you are, and spoiling yourself rotten with small kid's pleasures.
Julia Cameron
Survival lies in sanity, and sanity lies in paying attention...the capacity for delight is the gift of paying attention.
Julia Cameron

Julia Cameron
We must attend to what our inner guidance is nudging us toward.
Julia Cameron
Fatigue can make it hard to have faith. Too much busyness can make it hard to have faith. Too much of too little solitude can impact faith. For that matter, so can a bout of hunger or overwork, anything carried to an extreme. Faith thrives on routine. Look at any monastery and you will see that. Faith keeps on keeping on.
Julia Cameron
We will experience the life we have the faith to experience.
Julia Cameron
God does not give us more than we can handle, I am told but I wonder if God doesn't overestimate me just a little. Or perhaps, and this is likely, I underestimate God.
Julia Cameron
Creativity is not and never has been sensible.
Julia Cameron
We are meant to midwife dreams for one another. Success occurs in clusters
