Artists Do Not Run Away From Non-being,

The Ancient Greeks, As Plato Reports, Believed That We Discover Truth Through "reminiscence," That Is By "remembering," By Intuitively Searching Into Our Own Experience.

When People Feel Their Insignificance As Individual Persons, They Also Suffer An Undermining Of Their Sense Of Human Responsibility.

Good Art Wounds As Well As Delights. It Must, Because Our Defenses Against The Truth Are Wound So Tightly Around Us. But As Art Chips Away At Our Defenses, It Also Opens Us To Healing Potentialities That Transcend Intellectual Games And Ego-preserving Strategies.

Every Act Of Genuine Creativity Means Achieving A Higher Level Of Self-awareness And Personal Freedom.

By Whatever Name One Calls It, Genuine Creativity Is Characterized By An Intensity Of Awareness, A Heightened Consciousness.
