More From Jackson Pollock

The end of 'the end' is the best place to begin 'the end', because if you read 'the end' from the beginning of the beginning of 'the end' to the end of the end of 'the end', you will arrive at the end.
Best Place Ends Ifs
All that stuff about flatness - it's this idea that painting is a specialized discipline and that modernist painting increasingly refers to painting and is refining the laws of painting. but who cares about painting? what we care about is that the planet is heating up, species are disappearing, there's war, and there are beautiful girls here in brooklyn on the avenue and there's food and flowers.

Abstract Painting Compliment Expressionism
Pictures! pictures! pictures! often, before i learned, did i wonder whence came the multitudes of pictures that thronged my dreams; for they were pictures the like of which i had never seen in real wake-a-day life. they tormented my childhood, making of my dreams a procession of nightmares and a little later convincing me that i was different from my kind, a creature unnatural and accursed.
Dream Real Childhood
Read this and thought of you: through joy and through sorrow, i wrote. through hunger and through thirst, i wrote. through good report and through ill report, i wrote. through sunshine and through moonshine, i wrote. what i wrote it is unnecessary to say. ~ edgar allen poe
Sunshine Joy Sorrow
When i am in a painting, i'm not aware of what i'm doing. it is only after a sort of 'get acquainted' period that i see what i have been about. i have no fears about making changes, destroying the image, etc, because the painting has a life of its own. i try to let it come through. it is only when i lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess. otherwise there is pure harmony, an easy give and take, and the painting comes out well.

Rationalization is a cover-up, a process of providing one's emotions with a false identity, of giving them spurious explanations and justifications - in order to hide one's motives, not just from others, but primarily from oneself. the price of rationalizing is the hampering, the distortion, and, ultimately, the destruction of one's cognitive faculty. rationalization is a process not of perceiving reality, but of attempting to make reality fit one's emotions.

Women do not forget. women do not forgive.
Forgiving Forget
Although our moral conscience is a part of our consciousness, we do not feel ourselves on an equality with it. in this voice which makes itself heard only to give us orders and establish prohibitions, we cannot recognize our own voices; the very tone in which it speaks to us warns us that it expresses something within us that is not of ourselves.
Order Voice Giving
I have tasted freedom. i will not give up that which i have tasted. i have a lot more to drink. for that reason, the political numbers game will be played. i know the rules of their game now and how to play it.
