Art is meant to open your eyes not your pockets. It's made for ones who view the world differently. It reveals the beauty within ones' tragedy. If you're in it for the money, you aren't in it at all. If you're in it for the world you better be prepared to fall. Art is for the healing heart, the lost little girl, the one whose falling apart. Art is for the hopeful and the lost. Art is for the ones who want to rip off their disguise. Art is for the ones who are sick of their own lies. Art is not for personal gain or ten minutes of fame. If you're in it for the fantasy you'll be disappointed easily. You either give it your all expecting nothing or don't start at all. -Lily P. McLaughlin-
