  1. we need to take art for what it is in order to turn things into what they are not.
  2. you can't like art by liking it.
  3. we should stop imaging art and start seeing it.
  4. if you really want to do art then give art a break.
  5. @antheajk we don't last either. why should something we do - art be any different?
  6. once you get to know art you will stop knowing it.
  7. art is not the same for everyone and this is not the same for everyone either.
  8. @antheajk @MOCAlosangeles that's something you should answer yourself.
  9. @TheDharmaKing I don't know either. but it still happens.
  10. instead of buying great art one should make art great by buying it. - damienhirst.si/money.html
  11. art can take you far away but you have to come back on your own.
  12. buy money, not art. - damienhirst.si/money.html
  13. understanding art is good. enjoying art is better. creating art is the best.
  14. art doesn't mean a thing unless you want it to mean something no matter if this means something to you or not.
  15. art is not a goal but a fact.
  16. art is what we do and not what we achieve.
  17. art are not just things, ideas, actions etc. art is also art.
  18. If you haven't tried dropbox yet then maybe you should. db.tt/EGDlbFu
