I have a question: Do you always find the quote first and then select an appropriate picture, or do you sometimes have a picture in mind and search for a quote to fit?
i work in both directions. many times i'll be searching for an appropriate image to use with a quotation and i'll happen upon stuff that strikes my fancy, so i'll save it for future use. the last two images posted were found that way.
i just finished a haruki murakami novel called norwegian wood. he's got to be my favorite author. he's a modern japanese existentialist. one of them. you would adore his writing too. you might read some short stories and find some great quotes!he's got a short story collection called 'after the quake.'
I like words, images, graphic design, well-turned phrases, doodling, humor and profundity. These are found in every quarter and I'm always on the hunt. I was rescued (in November, 1974) from guilt and a stubborn irrational belief in an impersonal chance universe (with the accompanying hopelessness). I'm now convinced that nothing is more obvious or worthy of our attention than our Creator and the one true ancient path. Only Jesus has the words of everlasting life. Like John Newton "I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see."

I feel like that sometimes.
