Michelangelo
I live and love in God's peculiar light.
Michelangelo
Lord free me of myself, so I can please you!
Michelangelo

Michelangelo
Your gifts lie in the place where your values, passions and strengths meet. Discovering that place is the first step toward sculpting your masterpiece, Your Life.
Michelangelo
The greatest artist has no conception which a single block of white marble does not potentially contain within its mass, but only a hand obedient to the mind can penetrate to this image.
Michelangelo
Your greatness is measured by your horizons.
Michelangelo
A beautiful thing never gives so much pain as does failing to hear and see it.
Michelangelo
After four tortured years, more than 400 over life-sized figures, I felt as old and as weary as Jeremiah. I was only 37, yet friends did not recognize the old man I had become.
Michelangelo
