"Even bad books are books, and therefore sacred."German Novelist
1927 -
Let me expand this quote to say that even bad art is sacred. I believe the creative process is a sacred act. I think we have too many critics who are quick to criticize. If someone has the stamina to write a novel, the person is a success. It's like running a marathon. Just finishing is success. If a person has the courage to paint a picture, the person is successful. If I ask 10 different people what they think about a painting, a novel, a poem or a song, I would probably get 10 different opinions ranging from terrible to great. We try to make arts competitive by ranking them in terms of quality. The arts should not be competitive. Respect the creator. Honor the creator. Respect the creative process.
