“La historia del arte es una concatenación de rescates, rechazos e imitaciones en busca de la alteridad. Hay un replanteo permanente de los cánones históricos: incluyen lo que antes se excluía y excluyen lo que antes se incluía. La institución museística no sólo preserva el pasado en medio de la contemporaneidad, sino que también le ofrece a una generación viva, actual, una perspectiva después de la muerte.”

(From Laura’s note).”

“For serious problems you should schedule two sessions a day: half an hour before lunch and half an hour before dinner. Write them down in your engagement book. Give them priority. […] For less serious problems, ten minutes morning and night will get you into trim and keep you there. Or twenty minutes once a day, if that fits your schedule better. And don’t forget the while-you’re-doing-something routines. You can be pampering your body most of the day if you remember them, and your body will be very grateful.”
