"Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes.

Art is knowing which ones to keep."

Dilbert

"Revolted by the butchery of the 1914 World War, we in Zurich devoted ourselves to the arts. While guns rumbled in the distance, we sang, painted, made collages and wrote poems with all our might. We were seeking an art based on fundamentals, to cure the madness of the age, and find a new order of things that would restore the balance between heaven and hell. We had a dim premonition that power-mad gangsters would one day use art itself as a way of deadening men's minds."

Hans Arp

"No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatsoever at any time. There is only a queer divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than others."

Martha Graham

“I don’t look at this painting for very long, or at any of them. If I do I’ll start finding things wrong with them. I’ll want to take an Exacto knife to them, torch them, clear the walls. Begin again.

I see that there will be no end to imperfection, or to doing things the wrong way. Even if you grow up, no matter how hard you scrub, whatever you do, there will always be some other stain, or spot on your face or stupid act, somebody frowning.
Is it wrong to be right? How right should I be, to be perfect?”

Margaret Atwood,
Cat’s Eye

"Nobody can go back
and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.”

Maria Robinson

"My wandering soul found solace at last

I wanted to know how long it would last

She's losing control, she's coming down fast

The heart that I stole, I'm not giving back, never giving back."

Starsailor, Some of Us

"Art is the Weapon.

Your Imagination is the Ammunition.
Stay Dirty, and Stay Dangerous.
Create and Destroy as you see fit.
Embrace your Originality.
The Aftermath is Secondary.
You can and should do Anything."
