Divorce teaches you things. Like fractions.

„Meine Kunst ist Befreiungspolitik.“

A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful implanted in the human soul.

No one is asking, let alone demanding, that you write. The world is not waiting with bated breath for your article or book. Whether or not you get a single word on paper, the sun will rise, the earth will spin, the universe will expand. Writing is forever and always a choice - your choice.

When Hemingway killed himself he put a period at the end of his life. Old age is more like a semicolon

An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way.

"Maler sein ist kein Beruf, ebensowenig wie Anarchist, Liebender, Läufer, Träumer oder Boxer."

Digital art is highly popular. But digital art is also modern art. Picasso said "Why must i painting realistic, when the still camera exist." Digital camera is also a medium for modern artist. Today is easy to make a art, but is not easy to be a Artist. Digital camera relieved many operations but make you not a Artist. The gallery owners are business people and today is economy uninviting, what not makes to easy for a autodidact. But the digital camera makes anything to easy and makes afresh not easy to work as a Artist.

you do not even have to leave your room.
remain sitting at your table and listen,
do not even listen, just wait.
do not even wait, be still and solitary.
the world will freely offer itself to you unasked.
it has no choice.
it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.

" The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this: A human creature born abnormally, inhumanely sensitive. To them... a touch is a blow, a sound is a noise, a misfortune is a tragedy, a joy is an ecstasy, a friend is a lover, a lover is a god, and failure is death. Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity to create, create, create -- so that without the creating of music or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning, their very breath is cut off...They must create, must pour out creation. By some strange, unknown, inward urgency they are not really alive unless they are creating."

"A master in the art of living draws no sharp distinction between his work and his play; his labour and his leisure; his mind and his body; his education and his recreation. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence through whatever he is doing, and leaves others to determine whether he is working or playing. To himself, he always appears to be doing both."
