Quote 3. What I like about it is it kind of touches how humans are. We don't see what is there we see what we WANT to be there.

I chose Picasso's quote because it means that inspiration won't just come to you. You have to work for inspiration to get to you.

I think Andy Warhols comment is true we walk right past things without seeing the beauty in it. We judge things before we have actually examined it and tried to find the positive things.

I think processes are beautiful. There's nothing better than creamy peanut butter spread on toast to the very edge, without any knife marks--you know--super smooth.

I liked the last comment from Andy Warhol. He shows that there is more than we realize, we just have look. The reason why is because we tend to just get lazy, maybe if we aren't lazy we would realize the small and big things.

It is very true that we don't look for the good and beautiful things a lot of the time. We miss out on a lot of the best things in life that way. I think that the world would be happier and better if everyone tried to look for beauty and happiness in every situation.

I'm doing the quote about how it doesn't matter what you look at it matters what you see. I think this means that you may be looking toward something but you see something else. So if you need to have a job just because it pays a lot money then you are looking at it. However if you dance and your passion is dancing you are seeing it. You need to love what you do because if you don't, it doesn't matter.

I like Andy Warhols because we need to think what is in the inside and not the outside of others. We need to bring people up not down . This quote reminds me of girls camp we had a talk and it was about each one of us are princes and princess we are each diffrent but that what makes us stand out. We may be different but that is what makes us unique.
