words I needed

11/24/2016

 
 This is precisely the time when artists go to work.There is no time for despair, no place for self-pity, no need for silence, no room for fear. We speak, we write, we do language. That is how civilizations heal.
I know the world is bruised and bleeding, and though it is important not to ignore its pain, it is also critical to refuse to succumb to its malevolence. Like failure, chaos contains information that can lead to knowledge—even wisdom. Like art.

rocks on my mind

4/16/2016

 
"Stability itself is nothing but a more languid motion."
- Montaigne, 'Of Repentance' 

... and as originally written... so good: 
"La constance mesme n'est autre chose qu'un branle plus languissant."

films or bark

4/11/2016

 
I say therefore that likenesses or thin shapes
Are sent out from the surfaces of things
Which we must call as it were their films or bark.
Because the image bears the look and shape
​Of the body from which it came, as it floats in the air.
​
- Titus Lucretius Carus, from 'De rerum natura'
