Edgar Allan Poe
Were I called on to define, very briefly, the term Art, I should call it 'the reproduction of what the Senses perceive in Nature through the veil of the soul'. The mere imitation, however accurate, of what is in Nature, entitles no man to the sacred name of 'Artist'.

She's been on more laps than a napkin...People who are unable to motivate themselves...Mountains are the beginning and the end of all...The best measure of a man's honesty isn't his income...I think each shoot has a different personality...Paradise is always where love dwells...
