"I think they (painters) always just hope that they will be able to unlock the valves of sensation which just open out the whole appearance" Francis Bacon, in an interview. (artpress 215 Juillet/Aout 98 p.22).

A thinking reed.—It is not from space that I must seek my dignity, but from the government of my thought. I shall have no more if I possess worlds. By space the universe encompasses and swallows me up like an atom; by thought I comprehend the world.

Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
