More From Arthur Golden

Taste governs every free - as opposed to rote - human response. nothing is more decisive. there is taste in people, visual taste, taste in emotion - and there is taste in acts, taste in morality. intelligence, as well, is really a kind of taste: taste in ideas.
Ideas People Taste
The man who can see all gray, and red, and purples in a peach, will paint the peach rightly round, and rightly altogether. but the man who has only studied its roundness may not see its purples and grays, and if he does not will never get it to look like a peach; so that great power over color is always a sign of large general art-intellect.
Art Men Color
The discovery of the good taste of bad taste can be very liberating. the man who insists on high and serious pleasures is depriving himself of pleasure; he continually restricts what he can enjoy; in the constant exercise of his good taste he will eventually price himself out of the market, so to speak. here camp taste supervenes upon good taste as a daring and witty hedonism. it makes the man of good taste cheerful, where before he ran the risk of being chronically frustrated. it is good for the digestion.

Cutting Rocks Mushrooms
On these matters of specific fact, like is the mushroom an extraterrestrial and that sort of thing, i haven't the faintest idea. the mushroom itself is such a mercurial, elusive, zen sort of personality that i never believe a word it says. i simply entertain its notions and try and sort through them, and i found that to be the most enriching approach to it.

One does a whole painting for one peach and people think just the opposite - that particular peach is but a detail.

Reading put perspective to any challenge i was facing and made me see that extraordinary people usually had extraordinary pain, difficulties or injustices. that's part of why they have the drive and hunger to do good in the world, to make something happen.
