A wonderful quote from Emile De Antonio from the book Painters Painting which speaks elegantly to painting ones own time, The masterpiece hung over me like a boulder on a string. Anytime I thought of doing something I really wanted to do, like write a novel, I knew I would have to measure it against the Greeks, Dante, Balzac . So I drank and I drank an I read and I read and remained silent before marble greatness. I never understood I was a prisoner until I was freed and didnt know I was free until long after it happened.
