“The work of art, just like any fragment of human life considered in its deepest meaning, seems to me devoid of value if it does not offer the hardness, the rigidity, the regularity, the luster on every interior and exterior facet, of the crystal.”
—André Breton (1896–1966)
“And yet—it is not beauty that inspires the deepest passion. Beauty without grace is the hook without the bait. Beauty, without expression, tires.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“you are going, going.
You who have inhabited me
in the deepest and most broken place,
are going, going.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
