Psychologically intriguing paintings by Stephanie Levay:

Quetzal in flight

What a beautiful bird!– No wonder the quetzal is sacred to the indigenous peoples of Latin America and the national bird of Guatemala.

Muguet des bois sont beaux, n’est-ce pas? / They’re pretty, aren’t they?

Doug Dawson painting: they all fall down

J.K. Rowling: Rock bottom became the solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life.

General Omar Bradley: The world has achieved brilliance without conscience.

Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war than we know about peace, more about killing than we know about living. If we continue to develop our technology without wisdom or prudence, our servant may prove to be our executioner.
