lot of bad art comes from the human ego, true, but Art finds its origins in connections to the unconscious, to God.

so your unconscious
knows everything huh?
it's a nice personal theology you've built yourself there with bits and pieces of jung and plato and mystical scienticism, and i'm glad if it helps you in your travels, but when you prophesize in such grandiose tones i can't help to giggle. we don't know fuck about "before" the big bang or if there was such thing as "before". we just
don't know.
and the unconscious schmonscious.
we know very little about anything, and shouldn't need to use grandiose fantasies as a mental crutch, but as it happens we seem to have an instinct for it and some people need it more than others. fine..
