Anne Lamott Finding Yourself Quotations

It is in many people's best interest for you not to find yourself, but it only matters that it is in yours, and the whole world's, to proceed.

You can either set brick as a laborer or as an artist. You can make the work a chore, or you can have a good time. You can do it the way you used to clear the dinner dishes when you were thirteen, or you can do it as a Japanese person would perform a tea ceremony, with a level of concentration and care in which you can lose yourself, and so in which you can find yourself.
