"There was a period there where I was like, "No, no, no, this is crazy. I don't want to take any more drawing classes and talk about what looks best.

It employs archetypes which, as Jung warned us, are dangerous things. Fantasy is nearer to poetry, to mysticism, and to insanity than naturalistic fiction is. It is a wilderness, and those who go there should not feel too safe.”
