“But one thing is certain: the commandments have not changed. Let there be no mistake about that. Right is still right. Wrong is still wrong, no matter how cleverly cloaked in respectability or political correctness. We believe in chastity before marriage and fidelity ever after.

They were just collections of drawings, some of which I xeroxed and sold.” ArtDoneOne ThingStyleBecomingSceneStandardsDrawingAspirationCollectionsPunkCartoonEditorials Author:Raymond Pettibon
