My work explores the frontier between rationalism and superstition and the wavering boundary between the two.
David AlmondSometimes we just have to accept there are things we canโt know. Why is your sister ill? Why did my father die?โฆSometimes we think we should be able to know everything. But we canโt. we have to allow ourselves to see what there is to see, and we have to imagine.
David AlmondI don't want to be little again. But at the same time I do. I want to be me like I was then, and me as I am now, and me like I'll be in the future. I want to be me and nothing but me. I want to be crazy as the moon, wild as the wind and still as the earth. I want to be every single thing it's possible to be. I'm growing and I don't know how to grow. I'm living but I haven't started living yet.
