“The most interesting thing about artists is how they live”
― Marcel Duchamp, The Writings of Marcel Duchamp

“There are always a dozen reasons for doing nothing," Ann liked to say--it was a favourite apologia, indeed, for many of her misdemeanours. "There is only one reason for doing something. And that's because you want to." Or have to? Ann would furiously deny it: coercion, she would say, is just another word for doing what you want; or for not doing what you are afraid of.”
― John le Carré, Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy

“I feel shame, not for the wrong things I have done, but for the right things that I have failed to do.”
― Marcel Duchamp

“Sometimes people surprise us. People we believe we know.”
― Joyce Carol Oates, The Falls
