A dull thump and the characteristic tearing sound of dimensional barriers being broken heralded Botanist, decidedly the worse for wear.

Still pushing to his feet, he saw the rift he'd come through knit itself back together, leaving him rather stuck.

"....well, shit," they muttered, still staring at the place where the rift had been.

“It might not be a bad idea to remind ourselves here that the attitude of the artist is necessarily empirical rather than speculative. ‘Art is a virtue of the practical intelligence.’ All ‘artistic’ problems are, as such, practical problems. You can but cut the suit according to the cloth. For the artist the question is ‘Does it?’ rather than ‘Ought it?’”

—David Jones, “The Preface to The Anathemata,” in Epoch and Artist
