"Art is a healing process, as Nietzsche pointed out. Mainly for those who practice it. A man writes in order to know himself, and thus get rid of self eventually. That is the divine purpose of art. Whoever uses the spirit that is in him creatively is an artist. To make living itself an art, that is the goal." Page 400 #henrymiller #morningsinthefort #readers #readersofinstagram

The Japanese have a phrase for this dual perception: mono no aware. It means “beauty tinged with sadness,” for there cannot be any real beauty without the indolic whiff of decay. For me, living is the same thing as dying, and loving is the same thing as losing, and this does not make me a madwoman; I believe it can make me better at living, and better at loving, and, just possibly, better at seeing.
