are you listening?

“No teacher, preacher, parent, friend or wise man can decide what’s right for you- just listen to the voice that speaks inside.”

-Shell Silverstein

does beauty of character still count?

Cleopatra’s allure had little to do with her physical appearance and a lot to do with her intellect, character and, apparently, the tone of her voice. When you consider how deeply involved both Caesar and Antony became with her, it is obvious that there must have been something more at play than just a sexy young body. After all, both were notorious womanisers and would surely not have fallen for Cleopatra on the basis of sex alone.

opening of Nothing Sacred (1937)

“This is New York- Skyscraper Champion of the World.

… where the Slickers and Know-It-Alls peddle gold bricks to each other …

… and where Truth crushed to earth rises again more phony than a glass eye …”

Transcending Matter

(thanks Nezka for the article recommendation. 🙂

Matter, as Henri saw it, ought to bend, and does in fact bend, to the spirit that inhabits it. In critiquing a painting shown to him by one of his students, Henri wrote, “Paint even the rungs of the model’s chair so a poem could be written about them. Remember that your model is not against space, but in it. … Everything on the canvas, hair, coat, background and chair should help express your idea of the man’s character.”
