“The moment that you see a work of art, it conjures up all kinds of things: the creative act -- who produced it, where it's from, what the background is, what the artist's personality is, the times in which it was created. It's just endless what you can learn from a single work of art. You can fill up the crevices of your life, the cracks of your life, the places where the mortar comes out and falls away -- you can fill it up with the love of art. [-- Vincent Price]”

“Dr Sass…maintained that in paradise, until the time of the fall, the whole world was flat, the back-curtain of the Lord, and that it was the devil who invented a third dimension. Thus are the words ‘straight’, ‘square’, and ‘flat’ the words of noblemen, but the apple was an orb, and the sin of our first parents, the attempt at getting around God. I myself much prefer the art of painting to sculpture”
