It is now an accepted fact that the expression of emotion through painting... is a source of deep psychological satisfaction... It is a system which can also in some measure, even compensate for the lack of emotional fulfilment in human relationships.

It is now an accepted fact that the expression of emotion through painting... is a source of deep psychological satisfaction... It is a system which can also in some measure, even compensate for the lack of emotional fulfilment in human relationships.

The activity of painting: A thrilling tussle between the artist's materials and his inspiration.

Mervyn Levy Artist

The true work of art continues to unfold and create within the personality of the spectator. It is a continuous coming into being.

Mervyn Levy Artist

Sketching is the breath of art: it is the most refreshing of all the more impulsive forms of creative self-expression and, as such, it should be as free, and happy, as a song in the bath.

Mervyn Levy Artist

An intrinsic part of the whole delicious, exuberant fun, and joy of painting consists in simply not having to bother about making a mess, either of one's person, or of the surroundings in which one is at work.

But when you are doing an animated voice, it has to have more energy than usual or it falls flat and doesn't work. For myself, I found that I had to put myself in the same physical or emotional state as Sid, in order to make that voice sound alive and authentic. So if there was a scene in which he was running, I would be running beforehand to sound out of breath. That's important because the audience can tell intuitively if it does not sound real.

John Leguizamo Actor

Go within every day and find the inner strength so that the world will not blow your candle out

Katherine Dunham Dancer

The delight of the Torah is ignited by an inner awareness. A man begins to sense the great tapestry of each letter and point. Every concept and content, every notion and idea, of every spiritual movement, of every vibration, intellectual and emotional, from the immediate and general to the distant and detailed, from matters lofty, spiritual, and ethical according to their outward profile, to matters practical, obligatory, seemingly frightening, and forceful, and at the same time complex and full of content and great mental exertion - all together become known by a supernal holy awareness.

Abraham Isaac Kook Chief Rabbi

I always felt and still feel that fairy tales have an emotional truth that is so deep that there are few things that really rival them

Alice Hoffman Novelist

My mother's work has been an enormous influence on me, but not literally. By that I mean, my photographs don't look like hers. That makes it difficult to compare them. What they do share is an emotional intensity.

Amy Arbus Photographer

While most people can talk rationally about kernel design and portability, the issue of free-ness is 100% emotional.

Andrew S. Tanenbaum Computer Scientist
