"I don’t understand why people talk of art as a luxury when it’s a mind-altering possibility." ― Jeanette Winterson Topic(s): Art More From Jeanette Winterson "I had relationships with men as well as women. I wasn’t choosing; I didn’t think I had to." "I live alone, with cats, books, pictures, fresh vegetables to cook, the garden, the hens to feed." "If you continually write and read yourself as a fiction, you can change what’s crushing you." More In Art "Criticism is the windows and chandeliers of art: it illuminates the enveloping darkness in which art might otherwise rest only vaguely discernible, and perhaps altogether unseen."― George Jean Nathan "The art of effective listening is essential to clear communication, and clear communication is necessary to management success."― James Cash Penney "Rule of art: Cant kills creativity!"― Camille Paglia
