All Art At A Certain Level Is

Everything We Do Is Tinged With The Knowledge That This May Be The Last Time That We Will Do This, And That Makes What We're Doing Incredibly Sweet.

All One Wants To Do Is Make A Small, Finished, Polished, Burnished, Beautiful Object . . . I Mean, That's All One Wants To Do. One Has Nothing To Say About The World, Or Society, Or Morals Or Politics Or Anything Else. One Just Wants To Get The Damn Thing Done, You Know? Kafka Had It Right When He Said That The Artist Is The Man Who Has Nothing To Say. It's True. You Get The Thing Done, But You Don't Actually Have Anything To Communicate, Apart From The Object Itself.

No Two Things The Same, The Equals Sign A Scandal.

It's Great People Still Care About Books, And It's Great You Can Still Fashion A Life From Literature.

A Man Is Not Much If He Can't Depend On Himself, And Nothing If Others Can't Depend On Him.
