"There are two lives that people lead. One is the real life of business, mating, plans, bankruptcies and gas bills. The other is an unreal life - a life of secret grandeurs which compensate for the monotony of the days." - Ben Hecht's "Michigan Avenue"
Something to think on: Yes, this quote contains a great deal of truth, however is it not the clash between the two above mentioned "lives" that spurs artistry? Does the artist not strive to marry the unreal life of secret grandeurs with real life? Is that not what sparks creation? Just a thought.
