    In this thread, I will post a profound and/or chucklesome quote daily (don't quote me on that).

    “One cannot escape from the world with greater certainty than through art, and one cannot relate to it with greater certainty than through art.”

    ―Johann Wolfgang von Goethe


    Feel free to share your own favourite quotes.

    Thanks.
