3 quotes for the day...


“If you continually write and read yourself as a fiction, you can change what’s crushing you”.
Jeanette Winterson


The Importance of Art
"the proper moral purpose of one's life is the pursuit of one's own happiness or rational self-interest;and the role of art in human life is to transform man's widest metaphysical ideas, by selective reproduction of reality, into a physical form—a work of art—that he can comprehend and to which he can respond emotionally.
Ayn Rand (1905-1982)


“The whole point of civil disobediences is to make a moral statement. It’s not a competition or game to see who wins or loses. It’s all about doing what’s right regardless of the consequences.”

Ann Hansen, DIRECT ACTION, MEMOIRS OF AN URBAN GUERILLA
