On Freedom, Briefly (from Jody Feldman)
Perhaps my favorite quote combining freedom and creativity uses neither word.
Why do I love it?
It’s what I always strive to do, figuratively.
And do, literally.
“If they give you ruled paper, write the other way.”
– Juan Ramon Jimenez, Nobel Prize-winning poetWhy do I love it?
It’s what I always strive to do, figuratively.
And do, literally.

Great quote and love how you take it literally!
ReplyDeleteIt's the way I've always worked. (You should have seen my notes in school.)
DeletePERFECT quote.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like it.
DeleteThanks for the quote! Love. it. and it is exactly what I have been doing for a couple of months now. I even use sketch books to take notes at conferences.
ReplyDeleteI love sketch books, but rarely get them. I do have a ream of 17" x 11" plain paper which is my go-to, brainstorming stock. For some reason, it frees me.
DeleteI love things and thoughts that turn the normal upside down. Thanks Jody!
ReplyDeleteWhen I found it, it felt like an attagirl, that I might be onto something.
DeleteI'm a lined paper girl myself, but loved this, anyway!
