Iris Murdoch // "I think good art is good for people...Most of the time we fail to see the big wide real world...because we are blinded by obsession, anxiety, envy, resentment, fear. We make a small personal world in which we remain enclosed. Great art is liberating. It enables us to see and take pleasure in what is not ourselves. Literature stirs and satisfies our curiosity...it interests us in other people and other scenes, and helps us to be tolerant and generous. Art is informative."
Vladimir Nabokov // "Play! Invent the world! Invent reality!"
Sarah Moon // "Maybe I shouldn't go too long without working, my engine should run every day, because when it doesn't, I don't give myself a chance to make things happen."
