; the composer needs his music to be heard. Art is communication, and if there is no communication it is as though the work has been stillborn. - Quote by Madeleine L'Engle)
Save
The writer does want to be published; the painter urgently hopes that someone will see the finished canvas (van Gogh was denied the satisfaction of having his work bought and appreciated during his lifetime; no wonder the pain was more than he could bear); the composer needs his music to be heard. Art is communication, and if there is no communication it is as though the work has been stillborn.
