Words and Pictures

"Words and Pictures" is one of those feel-good-and-inspired movies for precisely words and pictures lovers, (like me?).
Thinking of that, it just made me realize the importance of these two worlds in my life, how I actually need words and pictures, how much of my important alone-time I spend in/with them and how I've been founding myself through it...
With that said, I feel like sharing one of the last speeches from the movie by 'Jack Marcus':

Each artist makes the world his or her own, and in doing so elevates it. And in doing that elevates us, gives us a larger view.
"Art is the most intense mode of individualism the world has ever known." Oscar Wilde.
Proust said that only through art can we get outside of ourselves and know another's view of the universe.

(...)
And the value of artists like that, artists like Miss Delsanto, is that through their gifts, their agonies, their energies, and their vision, they make us feel our best. They make us want to be our best. And I thank all of you for allowing us this opportunity to honor the artists and the arts, not through a battle,but through a... a coming together, a mating of words and pictures.
