| gptkbp:famous_quote |
" The mind loves the unknown; it loves images that are new, but it also loves the old images."
" Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see." “ Art evokes the mystery without which the world would not exist.” " The visible world is a world of appearances." " This is not a pipe." " Art evokes the mystery without which the world would not exist." “ Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see.” “ I am not a painter, I am a magician.” “ The mind loves the unknown.” “ This is not a pipe.” “ We must not fear daylight just because it almost always illuminates a miserable world.” Art evokes the mystery without which the world would not exist. Ceci n'est pas une pipe. Everything we see hides another thing. The visible world is a world of appearances. We must not fear daylight just because it almost always illuminates a miserable world. " I am not a painter, I am a magician." " The mind loves the unknown; it loves images that are new, but it also loves that which is familiar." " The mind loves the unknown; it loves images that do not return to reality." |
