The absolute is only attainable through faith and in the creative act.“ — Andrei Tarkovsky „Faithful to the word given and the idea had.All else is up to God!“ — Fernando Pessoa „A deserted library in the morning - there's something about it that really gets to me. All possible words and ideas are there, resting peacefully.“ — Haruki Murakami „Tyranny cannot defeat the power of ideas.“ — Helen Keller „Philistinism implies not only a collection of stock ideas but also the use of set phrases, clichés, banalities expressed in faded words. A true philistine has nothing but these trivial ideas of which he entirely consists.“ — Vladimir Nabokov „I also often hear the word 'evolution'. Repeatedly I am asked to explain how my painting evolved. To me there is no past or future in my art. If a work of art cannot live always in the present it must not be considered at all. The art of the Greeks, of the Egyptians, of the great painters who lived in other times, is not an art of the past; perhaps it is more alive today than it ever was. Art does not evolve by itself, the ideas of people change and with them their mode of expression.“ — Pablo Picasso
