Alone, and without any reference to his neighbours, without any interference, the artist can fashion a beautiful thing. If he does not do it solely for his own pleasure, he is not an artist at all.

Lovely. Who wrote it?
Apparently the film maker:
Flourish Initiative, about Today, I Rise
Film maker = Alexandra Feldner
Reminded me of A Prayer by Clarissa Pinkola Estes:
Refuse to fall down
If you cannot refuse to fall down,
refuse to stay down.
If you cannot refuse to stay down,
lift your heart toward heaven,
and like a hungry beggar,
ask that it be filled.
You may be pushed down.
You may be kept from rising.
But no one can keep you from lifting your heart
toward heaven
only you.
It is in the middle of misery
that so much becomes clear.
The one who says nothing good
came of this
is not yet listening.
This is so graceful and beautiful. Many many thanks Rosanne!
