Question I Will Inevitably Ask You During a Conversation:
"Read any good books lately?"
Words to Live By:
"Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage, no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what's inside you, to make your soul grow."
- Kurt Vonnegut Jr., response letter to Xavier High School English class, 2006
“This is the power of art: The power to transcend our own self-interest, our solipsistic zoom-lens on life, and relate to the world and each other with more integrity, more curiosity, more wholeheartedness.”
- Maria Popova, feature on the value of the arts for the National Endowment for the Arts, 2011
