    With homage to the perishable clay,
    But lift them over it, ignore it all,
    Make them forget there’s such a thing as flesh.
    Your business is to paint the souls of men—”
    —Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    “We write from aspiration and antagonism, as well as from experience. We paint those qualities which we do not possess.”
