“- Please. Don't switch off my mind by attempting to straighten me. Listen and understand, and when you feel contempt don't express it, at least not verbally, at least not to me. (Silence.) - I don't feel contempt. - No? - No. It's not your fault. - It's not your fault. That's all I ever hear, it's not your fault, it's an illness, it's not your fault, I know it's not my fault.

“Human search for unknown is an unquenchable thirst. For an artist, it is even more suicidal which she or he may deceitfully call as an adventure or simply an exploration of truth. Whatever may be called, it has all the conceits to give birth to the likes of Frieda Kahlo, Kafka, Van Gogh or even Sarah Kane.” ArtistHumanKafkaCamusSarah KaneFrieda Kahlo Author:Niloy Roy.
