Find the beauty in the construct we've all helped in creating. For without art, a blank slate. Without our memory, we'll forget. And without an attachment to the environment around us, we lose ground.

Artists and scientists are activists. They look at the world as changeable and they look upon themselves as instruments of change. They understand that the slice of world they occupy is only a fragment but that the fragment is intrinsically connected to the whole. They know that action matters.”
