quelques mots
"I still, in presence of life ... have reactions --
as many as possible. ... It's, I suppose, because I am that queer monster, the
artist, an obstinate finality, an inexhaustible sensibility. Hence the reactions
-- appearances, memories, many things, go on playing upon it with consequences
that I note and "enjoy" (grim word!) noting. It all takes doing -- and I
do. I
believe I shall do yet again -- it is still an act of
life."
-Henry James, to Henry Adams.
"We work in the dark
--
we do what we can
--
we give what we
have.
Our doubt is our passion, and our passion
is our task. The rest is the madness of art."
