The dignity of the artist lies in his duty of keeping awake the sense of wonder in the world. In this long vigil he often has to vary his methods of stimulation; but in this long vigil he is also himself striving against a continual tendency to sleep.

  • -- Marc Chagall 马克·夏加尔

艺术家的尊严在于他有责任保持对世界的好奇心。在这漫长的守夜中,他常常不得不改变他的刺激方法;但在这漫长的守夜中,他自己也在与持续不断的睡眠作斗争。
