Monet Quotes

“What keeps my heart awake is colorful silence.”

“Editors can be stupid at times. They just ignore that author’s intention. I always try to read unabridged editions, so much is lost with cut versions of classic literature, even movies don’t make sense when they are edited too much. I love the longueurs of a book even if they seem pointless because you can get a peek into the author’s mind, a glimpse of their creative soul. I mean, how would people like it if editors came along and said to an artist, ‘Whoops, you left just a tad too much space around that lily pad there, lets crop that a bit, shall we?’. Monet would be ripping his hair out.”
― E.A. Bucchianeri, Brushstrokes of a Gadfly

“What he was after hangs between the visible and the invisible, between the here and now and the seemingly elsewhere.”

“A bad leader wouldn't stress the importance of staying together to stop the enemy. You want peace? You can't forgive the enemy, if you can't forgive your men for losing faith.

― Monet Polny, The Lincoln Spy

― Jarod Kintz, 94,000 Wasps in a Trench Coat
