The artist rarely says, “I’d like to do less.” Instead, she wonders how to contribute more, because the very act of creativity is the point of the work.*
Seth Godin

True perseverance … is flanked by the ancient values: courage and values.**
Anna Katharina Schaffner

To contribute is the point,
The desire to give and
somehow, somewhere, for someone
to make things better,
Beautiful, even,
Something mythical, leaving us in
no doubt that we are
alive.
