Chris--
That's why we have critics, editors, and artists, usually in separate
bodies. Those are usually distinctly separate jobs.
The first of those, the critics, are, I think, largely disposable. The
second, the editor, if really, really good, for a writer, is invaluable. The
third, the artist, is absolutely indispensable.

Bravo, the reason I rarely criticize and have a hell of a time editing.

Subject: [Leica] my favorite martha graham quote
no monkeys in this one:
"There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through
you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this
expression is unique.
If you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and be lost.
The world will not have it.
It is not yours to determine how good it is; nor how it compares with other
expressions. It is your business to keep the channel open.
You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep
open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel
open.
No artist is ever pleased.
There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer divine
dissatisfaction; a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more
alive than the others."
Martha Graham to Agnes De Mille
