More From Walter Scott

There are no brave men and cowardly men in the world, my son. there are only brave men. to be born, to live, to die—that takes courage enough in itself, and more than enough. we are all brave men and we are all afraid, and what the world calls a brave man, he too is brave and afraid like the all rest of us. only he is brave for five minutes longer.

When we speak of a calm state of mind or peace of mind, we shouldn't confuse that with an insensitive state of apathy. having a calm or peaceful state of mind doesn't mean being spaced out or completely empty. peace of mind or a calm state of mind is rooted in affection and compassion and is sensitive and responsive to others.

Painting, for me, when it really 'happens,' is as miraculous as any natural phenomenon - as say, a lettuce leaf. by 'happens,' i mean the painting in which the inner aspect of man and his outer aspects interlock.
