“We need to face the terrifying,
simple act of claiming pleasure;
that shattering or implosion of self,
the deviancy assigned to evolution”
-Kelsey L. Smoot

(Luxe, Calme et Volupté, Henri Matisse,1904)

“Although we read with our minds, the seat of artistic delight is between the shoulder blades. That little shiver behind is quite certainly the highest form of emotion that humanity has attained when evolving pure art and pure science. Let us worship the spine and its tingle.”
-Vladimir Nabokov
