QUOTE(S) OF THE DAY “Wisdom is the reward you get for a lifetime of listening when you’d have preferred to talk.” – Doug Larson “The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another; and his humblest hour is when he compares the volume as it is with what he vowed to make it.” – J. M. Barrie “When you love and accept yourself, when you know who really cares about you, and when you learn from your mistakes, then you stop caring about what people who don't know you think.” – Beyoncé “Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.” – Kahlil Gibran “A lot of people are afraid of heights. Not me, I'm afraid of widths.” – Steven Wright VIDEO(S) OF THE DAY Jazz Lunch at University of Wisconsin-Superior Fox21Online Tiny Desk Concert | Gary Clark Jr. NPR Tiny Desk Concert | Ohmme NPR Wisconsin artists and arts organizations, do you have video that you’d like us to consider sharing as the Wisconsin Arts News Video of the Day?
