Elton Dean Tribute Page

I've taken the liberty of putting a few quotes below - words that have crossed my mind these past weeks thinking about the Elton we got to know only too briefly. I ask the readers indulgence, Thank You. . . j.s.

"The more perfect the artist, the more completely separate in him will be the man who suffers and the mind which creates." - T. S. Eliot

"I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world." - Albert Einstein

"No artist is ahead of his time. He is his time. It is just that the others are behind the time." - Martha Graham

"Ars Longa, Vita Brevis - Art is Long, Life is Short" - Hippocrates

"You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you mad." - Aldous Leonard Huxley

"Believe in whatever harmless lies make you happy, healthy, brave and kind." - Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.

"I think most artists create out of despair. The very nature of creation is not a performing glory on the outside, it's a painful, difficult search within." - Louise Nevelson
