We don't often talk about the fact that writing is all about rhythm. When you get too up in your head, you can lose a lot of your writing. Sometimes what a writer really needs to do is go dancing.

More quotes by Julia Cameron
I am breathing in and out. Realizing this, I began to notice that each moment was not without its beauty.
Julia Cameron
Making art has taught me that the tiniest smidgen of progress is something to be cherished.
Julia Cameron
Art is a spiritual practice. We may not, and need not, do it perfectly.
Julia Cameron
Adversity is a misperception as all works toward the good.
Julia Cameron
Sometimes the dying live more fiercely and wisely than the rest of us. (146)
Julia Cameron
The grace to be a beginner is always the best prayer for an artist.
Julia Cameron
There is not one pink flower, or even fifty pink flowers, but hundreds. Snowflakes, of course, are the ultimate exercise in sheer creative glee. No two alike. This creator looks suspiciously like someone who just might send us support for our creative ventures.
Julia Cameron
Leap, and the net appears.
Julia Cameron
When you are feeling too dull and too domesticated get on a horse, sit tall in the saddle, and for a moment live in a world that feels like risk and adventure.
Julia Cameron
I am due at the page.
Julia Cameron
Anger is meant to be acted upon. It is not meant to be acted out.
Julia Cameron
Practice being kind to yourself in small, concrete ways. Look at your refrigerator. Are you feeding yourself nicely? Do you have socdks? An extra set of sheets? What about a new house plant? A thermos for the long drive to work? Allow yourself to pitch out some of your ragged clothes. You don't have to keep everything.
Julia Cameron
I think of making love and making art as being very parallel. Even the most amateur attempt can be thrilling.
Julia Cameron
There will be many times when we won't look good-to ourselves or anyone else. We need to stop demanding that we do. It is impossible to get better and look good at the same time.
Julia Cameron
My heart holds the world in tender awe.
Julia Cameron
I plant the seeds of love in my heart. I plant the seeds of love in the hearts of others.
Julia Cameron
Love is not love if it is compelled by reason and driven by logic - love exists in spite of those things, not because of them. It is a emotion which needs no fuel to fire it or oxygen to feed it if you have to look for the why, then stop looking it was never there at all.
Julia Cameron
The creator made us creative. Our creativity is our gift from God. Our use of it is our gift to God. Accepting this bargain is the beginning of true self-acceptance.
Julia Cameron
Art is an act of the soul, not the intellect. When we are dealing with people's dreams - their visions, really - we are in the realm of the sacred. We are involved with forces and energies larger than our own. We are engaged in a sacred transaction of which we know only a little: the shadow, not the shape.
Julia Cameron
It hurts like hell when the world won't invest in you. But it's excruciating, almost more than you can bear, when you don't believe and invest in yourself.
Julia Cameron
