"Art is not a handicraft, it is the transmission of feeling the artist has experienced."

Words are the only bullets some of us have.

I'm mentioning all this -- I'm mentioning all this because I think this is not merely a personal problem; you may think I'm wrong in this, but I think we live in an age when our lives are regularly punctuated by career crises, by moments when what we thought we knew -- about our lives, about our careers -- comes into contact with a threatening sort of reality.

Life is about creating yourself.
