art is more than u can c

"Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative 

vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary."  Cecil Beaton

"Art is a step from what is obvious and well-known toward what is arcane and concealed".  Kahlil Gibran

"What art offers is space - a certain breathing room for the spirit."  John Updike
