Over the past year Eat Pray Love author Elizabeth Gilbert [1] has been sharing quotes from her book Big Magic [2] on her Instagram [3] and Facebook [4] accounts — and they are just too good not to share. I loved the book, and I can vouch for it being a must read for anyone hoping to live a creative life. As Gilbert writes in Big Magic, "If you're alive, you're a creative person" — so that means you! Read these quotes, and I dare you not to be inspired to be brave, to be free, and to be curious.
