“Any artistic achievement that is tailored to conform to social demands rather than to the real, uninhibited, feelings of its creator, is destined not to reach the heights of achievement, or even fail. It is only when an artist is dis-inhibited that he or she can reach the heights of artistic achievement.” RealFeelingsArtistSocialFailingDemandAchievementCreatorArtisticHeightConformDestinedTailored Author:Semir Zeki
“The summit charms us, the steps to it do not; with the heights before our eyes, we like to linger in the plain. It is only a part of art that can be taught; but the artist needs the whole. He who is only half instructed speaks much and is always wrong; who knows it wholly is content with acting and speaks seldom or late.” KnowsNeedsArtWholeEyeArtistSpeakActingHalfStepsTaughtLateHeightCharmSummitAlways Wrong Author:Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
