Everybody should be entitled to one lie, one failing, one infidelity.
The other side of reverence is loathing.
When the world's run by fools it's the duty of intelligence to disobey.
If we're being told to do stupid or cruel things, then it is morally correct to disobey.
I realized that the only possible response was to go to my wonderful local café, Maison Bertaux, check everyone was well, eat a little cake and then make art. To me, making art, and in particular public art, is always an assertion of our humanity and our strength.
I believe we have to put art back at the center of everyday life rather than allowing it to become a specialist activity at the margins of society.
