There are some
things you learn best in calm,
and some in storm.
Give the people a new word and they
think they have a
new fact.
What was any
art but an
effort to make
a sheath, a mold in which
to imprison for a moment the shining,
elusive element which
is life itself.
Art should simplify…
finding what conventions of form and what detail one can
do without and yet
preserve the spirit of
the whole.
I tell you there is such a
thing as creative
hate.
