“Our thoughts are to the individual as our art is to the community.”

“At a basic level, community unites us to a purpose bigger than our own lives as individuals.”

“Our power as individuals is multiplied when we gather together as families, teams, and communities with common goals.”

“The essential element in the black art of obscurantism is not that it wants to darken individual understanding, but that it wants to blacken our picture of the world, and darken our idea of existence.”

“We spent our whole lives in unconsous excercise of the art of expressing our thoughts with the help of words”

“What strikes me is the fact that in our society, art has become something which is related only to objects and not to individuals, or to life. That art is something which is specialized or which is done by experts who are artists. But couldn't everyone's life become a work of art? Why should the lamp or the house be an art object, but not our life?”
