Quotes: Wrenn Slocum

"I believe so strongly in making conscious decisions about how to spend our finite lives. Maybe it comes from the years I worked in hospital intensive care units. On the night shift I often had the privilege of listening as people faced their approaching death. No one ever expressed regret about not spending enough time at the office, keeping their shower grout cleaner or watching more television." 

–– Wrenn Slocum, fibre artist
