Art and Love

“Artists fall in love, of course, but love isn't their primary gift. They love their high function, the use of their genius, not actual women. They have their own sort of driving force.”

-- Ravelstein by Saul Bellow

I fancy the romantic notion that it is the want of love that leads one to art, which can then become tragic if you are no more capable of art than love.
