Quotes about… Crayons

We could learn a lot from a box of crayons:some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors… but they have all learned to live inthe same box. Anonymous

Your attitude is like a box of crayons that color your world. Constantly color your picture gray, and your picture will always be bleak. Try adding some bright colors to the picture by including humor, and your picture begins to lighten up. Allen Klein

I think the Old Masters would have considered Crayola Crayons a high-tech palette in a box. Jeffrey Robert THE CRAYON ARTIST®

Life is about using the whole box of crayons. RuPaul

And here is a student’s journal response to the RuPaul quote above:

And most [boxes of crayons] have 16 colors…twice as many as a simple box of crayons. It is the variations in the world that make life worth living. It’s about the appreciation for the differences and the sameness that mankind share. We couldn’t possible glory in the beauty of a yellow, sunny day if we had never seen a gray and gloomy one. Nor could we marvel at the sea foam green of the ocean if it didn’t lay against the sky blue of the Heavens. Use them all. Make things the color that you want them… after all, no one else’s opinion matters but your own. I personally see nothing wrong with a purple horse… and neither did my mom.
