Driving a motorcycle is like flying. All your senses are alive. When I ride through Beverly Hills in the early morning, and all the sprinklers have turned off, the scents that wash over me are just heavenly. Being House is like flying, too. You're free of the gravity of what people think. ↗

I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order. ↗

Observe, record, tabulate, communicate. Use your five senses. Learn to see, learn to hear, learn to feel, learn to smell, and know that by practice alone you can become expert. ↗

Faith certainly tells us what the senses do not, but not the contrary of what they see; it is above, not against them. ↗

Each day I live in a glass room unless I break it with the thrusting of my senses and pass through the splintered walls to the great landscape. ↗

Were I called on to define, very briefly, the term Art, I should call it 'the reproduction of what the Senses perceive in Nature through the veil of the soul.' The mere imitation, however accurate, of what is in Nature, entitles no man to the sacred name of 'Artist.' ↗

— Edgar Allan Poe
