"The point isn't to know what you're doing. The point is to have an experience doing something."

--

Kiki Smith

“There are joys so complete, so all perfect, that one should not survive them.”
“No one's ever gotten better by practicing less.”
“The root of a nation's misfortunes has to be sought in the moral failings of the government.”
“This clay, so strong of heart, of sense so fine,Surely such clay is more than half divine--'Tis only fools speak evil of the clay,The very stars are made of clay like mine.”
“It is a commonplace of modern technology that problems have solutions before there is knowledge of how they are to be solved.”
“One of the deep fundamentals of poetry is the recurrence of sounds, syllables, words, phrases, lines, and stanzas. Repetition can be one of the most intoxicating features of poetry. It creates expectations, which can be fulfilled or frustrated. It can create a sense of boredom and complacency, but it can also incite enchantment and inspire bliss.”
“Experience is knowing a lot of things you shouldnt do.”
“We become the books we read.”
