“Art is a step from what is obvious and well-known toward what is arcane and concealed.”
“What art should do, I think, is advance the generation into the next era. It should be one step ahead of the ordinary, ahead of what is already known. Art is what pulls on the next age. I’m not saying that my art is that, but that it would be good if it could be.”
“What art does is coax us away from the mechanical and towards the miraculous”
“Declaring our intentions for a safer and kinder world is the obvious first step toward attaining those goals.”
“Be what you are. This is the first step toward becoming better than you are.”
“Sometimes, it is necessary to step beyond what you have known and to reach for something more.”
