There was a big drive when I was at art school to make you aware of the economy of meaning - after all, this was still during the tail end of minimalism.

Truly fertile Music, the only kind that will move us, that we shall truly appreciate, will be a Music conducive to Dream, which banishes all reason and analysis. One must not wish first to understand and then to feel. Art does not tolerate Reason. ↗

You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life. ↗

True contentment is a thing as active as agriculture. It is the power of getting out of any situation all that there is in it. It is arduous and it is rare. ↗
