Quote by Miloš Timotijević

“Иако је била окренута ”националном пејзажу”, Надежда је за тадашњу Србију и устаљене грађанске норме понашања била необична особа. Карактеристичан је опис учитељице Маре Ковачевић Бешлић: ”Путовала сам са једном чудном дамом. Плава, разбарушена, са огромном косом. Вукла је неке даске са собом у купеу. Сасвим необична жена, сем тога - нешнирана. То је било доба када су се жене без изузетака 'шнирале', то јест утезале се у оклопе који су имали да удесе одређену линију фигури.” Надеждина појава изазивала је чуђење и сељака када је сликала: ”десетак жена и људи било је у послу, а у једном крају седела је заиста чудна женска прилика пред ногарама и разапетим платном - и вредно мазала. Сељаци су се мало невољно држали у близини жене која их строгим оком прати и по неки је покушавао да преко рамена види шта се то одиграва с оне стране платна.” ... Надежда је 1904. месец дана боравила у Реснику. Хранила се у сеоској кафани. ... На газдарицу кафане остављала је збуњујући утисак: ”Ово као да је и жена и мушкарац.”

“The distinction between art and illusion is a distinction between a lost experience that has been recovered and made a part of the present reality, and a lost experience that remains unconscious because it is screened in cliches and ready-made conventions of morality. Someone has said that art is the invention of new cliches. It would be more to the point to define true education as the prevention of cliche formation-which is what I mean by education through art.”

“How Not to Use AI (Sonnet 2651-2652) Every artist has a central art, an art that defines their life, keep that art pure and human, till the day you die. The medium may change with time, but the material must be human. I repeat, AI may assist humanity, but not substitute humanity. Humans are not much bright to begin with, with all our jungle biases and prejudices, and leaning heavily on generative ai, would only turn society into meatmarket. AI is not the problem, mindlessness is, in fact, it's stupid not to make use of a marvelous new instrument out of rigidity, but you must draw a clear line between human originality and ai assistance. For example, I literally cannot remember when was the last time I picked up a physical pen, as all my books are written on a computer. And at some point, I might even consider using AI for minor bookcover edits, not generate the cover mark you, but strictly for tweaks of the images. I won't even let your little bards and byrons anywhere near my writing, let alone algorithms. I am Naskar, the canon is Naskar, it'll remain Naskar, till the universe collapses and the next one begins.”

“But, for a Christian, there are, strictly speaking, no chances. A secret Master of the Ceremonies has been at work. Christ, who said to the disciples "Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you," can truly say to every group of Christian friends "You have not chosen one another but I have chosen you for one another." The Friendship is not a reward for our discrimination and good taste in finding one another out. It is the instrument by which God reveals to each the beauties of all the others. They are no greater than the beauties of a thousand other men; by Friendship God opens our eyes to them. They are, like all beauties, derived from Him through the Friendship itself, so that it is His instrument for creating as well as for revealing. At this feast it is He who has spread the board and it is He who has chosen the guests. It is He, we may dare to hope, who sometimes does, and always should, preside. Let us not reckon without our Host.”
