Your letters are certainly like drinks of fine cold spring water on a hot day -- They have a spark of the kind of fire in them that makes life worthwhile -- That nervous energy that makes people like you and I want and go after everything in the world -- bump our heads on all the hard walls and scratch our hands on all the briars -- but it makes living great -- doesn`t it? -- I`m glad I want everything in the world -- good and bad -- bitter and sweet -- I want it all and a lot of it too --
Georgia O'Keeffe, born on this day in 1887, from a letter to Anita Pollitzer, 25 August 1915
