More From Isaac Bashevis Singer
- "The very essence of literature is the war between emotion and intellect, between life and death. When literature becomes too intellectual – when it begins to ignore the passions, the emotions – it becomes sterile, silly, and actually without substance."
- "I am thankful, of course, for the prize and thankful to God for each story, each idea, each word, each day."
- "Kindness, I’ve discovered, is everything in life."

- "I’m noticing a new approach to art making in recent museum and gallery shows. It flickered into focus at the New Museum’s ‘Younger Than Jesus’ last year and ran through the Whitney Biennial, and I’m seeing it blossom and bear fruit at ‘Greater New York,’ MoMA P.S. 1’s twice-a-decade extravaganza of emerging local talent."― Jerry Saltz
- "Art depends on luck and talent."― Francis Ford Coppola
- "The finest works of art are precious, among other reasons, because they make it possible for us to know, if only imperfectly and for a little while, what it actually feels like to think subtly and feel nobly."― Aldous Huxley
