Artists Do Not Run Away From Non-being,

When People Feel Their Insignificance As Individual Persons, They Also Suffer An Undermining Of Their Sense Of Human Responsibility.

It Requires Greater Courage To Preserve Inner Freedom, To Move On In One's Inward Journey Into New Realms, Than To Stand Defiantly For Outer Freedom. It Is Often Easier To Play The Martyr, As It Is To Be Rash In Battle.

Human Freedom Involves Our Capacity To Pause, To Choose The One Response Toward Which We Wish To Throw Our Weight.

Whereas Moral Courage Is The Righting Of Wrongs, Creative Courage, In Contrast, Is The Discovering Of New Forms, New Symbols, New Patterns On Which A New Society Can Be Built.

Every Act Of Genuine Creativity Means Achieving A Higher Level Of Self-awareness And Personal Freedom.
