Divine Inspiration


"I've been no more than a medium, as it were."
Henri Matisse

Everything vanishes around me, and my works are born as if out of the void. Ripe, graphic fruits fall off. My hand has become the obedient instrument of a remote will."
Paul Klee

"Like every writer, I am asked where my work originates, and if I knew I would go there more often to find more."
Henry Miller

"I have been surprised at the observations made by some of my characters. It seems as if an occult Power was moving the pen. The personage does or says something, and I ask, how the dickens did he come up with that?"
William Makepeace Thackeray
