Stop telling yourself that dreams don't matter, that they are only dreams and that you should be more sensible.
Julia Cameron
Money cannot fill an empty soul.
Julia Cameron
Creativity occurs in the moment, and in the moment we are timeless.
Julia Cameron
In our human lives, we are often impatient, ill-tempered, inappropriate. We find it difficult to treat our intimates with the love we really hold for them. Despite this, they bear with us because of the larger, higher level of family that they honor even in our outbursts. This is their commitment.
Julia Cameron
Creativity is the natural order of life. Life is energy: pure creative energy.
Julia Cameron
What we really want to do is what we are really meant to do. When we do what we are meant to do, money comes to us, doors open for us, we feel useful, and the work we do feels like play to us.

Julia Cameron
Often it is tenacity, not talent, that rules the day.
Julia Cameron
Survival lies in sanity, and sanity lies in paying attention...the capacity for delight is the gift of paying attention.
Julia Cameron
We waste a lot of time and a lot of talent trying to write for the common reader, whom we will never meet. Instead we should be writing for our ideal reader.
Julia Cameron
My heart holds the world in tender awe.
Julia Cameron
We are not accustomed to thinking that God's will for us and our own inner dreams can coincide.
Julia Cameron
All too often, it is audacity and not talent that moves an artist to center stage.
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
When we let God be God and work through us, we experience both a sense of serenity and excitement.
Julia Cameron
we should write because writing brings clarity and passion to the act of living. writing is sensual, experiential, grounding. we should write because writing is good for the soul. we should write because writing yields us a body of work, a felt path through the world we live in.
