Art--The big YES!!!!

I love this quote from poet Marvin Bell. I think it has a lot of mewning to writers and all other artistic types.

"Much of our lives involves the word 'no.' In school we are mostly told, 'Don't do it this way. Do it that way.' But art is the big yes. In art, you get a chance to make something where there was nothing."

Thanks for reading.
