DNA

". . . Isn't our DNA the very first text of our lives? These exquisite inherited strands begin our personal story and also partially contain our destinies. Unlucky? Suffer a terrible congenital disease. Lucky? Hit the jackpot with a higher IQ. DNA is where we start, but surely the rest of our story is up to us, written with every decision we make, risk taken or avoided, and with each opportunity we act upon to create ourselves. We inherit the first book of our lives, but we write the rest every day with our character."

from Marge Fox speaking about her art quilt "The Creation" at www.theartquiltassociation.com



"We are here to create, not just survive."
