Just two quotes for tonight:
"It is the duty of righteous men to make war on all undeserved privilege, but one must not forget that this is a war without end."
-Primo Levi
"The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this: A human creature born abnormally, inhumanely sensitive. To him... a touch is a blow, a sound is a noise, a misfortune is a tragedy, a joy is an ecstasy, a friend is a lover, a lover is a god, and failure is death.
Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity to create, create, create--so that without the creating of music or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning, his very breath is cut off...
He must create, must pour out creation. By some strange, unknown, inward urgency he is not really alive unless he is creating."
-Pearl S Buck
