It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, or so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere through which we look - to affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of the arts.
-- Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862)
I have always been in awe of good artists - esp musicians - there is such a pleasure in watching and listening to those who let their instruments create such a beautiful atmosphere around, - but then Mr. T above makes total sense.
