An artist must be jealous of their time alone. Every small moment must be gathered close or else risk missing the next message from The Artist, shepard of all creativity.
A Spiritual Journey
by Wendell Berry
And the world cannot be discovered by a journey of miles,
no matter how long,
but only by a spiritual journey,
a journey of one inch,
very arduous and humbling and joyful,
by which we arrive at the ground at our feet,
and learn to be at home.
