Nowadays, anyone who wishes to combat lies and ignorance and to write the truth must overcome at least five difficulties. He must have the courage to write the truth when truth is everywhere opposed; the keenness to recognize it, although it is everywhere concealed; the skill to manipulate it as a weapon; the judgment to select those in whose hands it will be effective; and the running to spread the truth among such persons.

Art is not a mirror. Art is a hammer.

If you fight you might lose, if you don't you have already lost.

All artforms are in the service of the greatest of all arts: the art of living.
