Additional quotes by Eli Siegel

Art is internal and external. The repose a person feels in aesthetic creation comes from his, for the time, feeling he is what he is and also what he is not.

The artist feels he has reached form in the deepest places of his personality, because things outside himself have been see courageously, truly, respectfully by him.
