Day 353 - James Joyce


"Irresponsibility is part of the pleasure of all art;
it is the part the schools cannot recognize".

"I will not serve that in which I no longer believe
whether it call itself home,
my fatherland or my church:
and I will try to express myself in some mode
of life or art as freely as I can
and as wholly as I can, using for my defence
the only arms I allow myself to use,
silence, exile, and cunning.

(A Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Man)
James Joyce
