    Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)

    I never wanted to live an unembellished life, and I have never done it.... Living under such a compulsion has been like painting pictures of life, and I don’t take kindly to suggestions that I might have been less egotistically employed had I become a trained nurse.
    Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)
