in stillness i hear god

Never lose sight of the fact that all human felicity lies
in man's imagination, and that he cannot think to attain
it unless he heeds all his caprices. The most fortunate of
persons is he who has the most means to satisfy his vagaries.

unknown inspiration

Any artist is driven by strange forces. The whole impulse in art-making is
to untangle your dark emotions. There’s always some strange drive in the
work of any major artist. The idea that “people make art because they are
happy people who want to share their thoughts” — ridiculous. No happy
person has ever had a major career in the arts. The only example I can find
is Raphael...
There’s no example of major art coming from a nice person or from
purely positive or altruistic emotions. There is some huge conflict and
inner war in every major artist.

I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
i've been raising up my hands
drive another nail in
just what god needs
one more victim
