In the West, we look at art through life. Well, that’s one way of living. In the Orient they look at life through art.

I’m allergic to goo and rococo. Paul Rand
There are those who love to get dirty and fix things. They drink coffee at dawn, beer after work. And those who stay clean, just appreciate things. At breakfast they have milk and juice at night. There are those who do both, they drink tea. Gary Snyder
