Watch an ice cap melt.
Watch your mother cry.
Watch your grandfather forget your name.
If a tree falls in the forest, alone,
does it make a sound?
If a girl cries in the dark,alone,
can she be seen?
To be an artist is to choose
loneliness over emptiness.
Why do you think poison ivy grows leaves?
To use the right side of your brain
is to choose
to make a sacrifice.
