And I'd Do It Again

I believe absolutely that living, in the completest sense of that word … discovering the full beauty of living and plunging ones self utterly into the human beings that swarm through this life … is a pure art. It is, I honestly think, the highest artistic accomplishment we can hope for. All the recognized arts … your paintings, your sculpture, your music, your books … all those things are only the symbols of that higher art: living.

to learn just how devilish a human being can be.
