![“When carving stone, the sculptor removes everything that is not the statue. […] The art of revealing beauty lies in removing what conceals it. So, too, Patanjali [in the Yoga Sutras] tells us that wholeness exists within us. Our work is to chisel away at everything that is not essence, not Self.” quote by Judith Hanson Lasater](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/0e3/judith-hanson-lasater-12396_art_when-carving-stone-the-sculptor-removes_1557036.jpg)
