Quote
There is just as much value in the negative space. Not every second of your life has to be filled. A packed agenda is not a success. Living at work as opposed to working to live is not a quality of life. Things are not split into 'times in which you're doing something that other people can quantify' and 'times you're doing nothing.' It's all important. Your deepest revelations happen in silent moments with yourself. Being crowded with people and appointments and ideas and creative outpourings wouldn't be so profound and stunning if there weren't also moments of aloneness and nothingness and mental drought. The context of things matters just as much as the things do. The focal point of a piece of art wouldn't exist without the negative space to frame it.Share
