More From Ludwig Von Mises

I have stood aside to see the phantoms of those days go by me. they are gone, and i resume the journey of my story.’ (david copperfield) “but all that night he lay awake because the phantoms of those days were not gone. like the tiny, terrible holes in the prophylactics, the phantoms of those days were not easy to detect—and their meaning was unknown—but they were there.

What is an artist? a provincial who finds himself somewhere between a physical reality and a metaphysical one... it’s this in-between that i’m calling a province, this frontier country between the tangible world and the intangible one - which is really the realm of the artist.
