As long as your work remains unwritten in your head, it has no effect on anyone. Except you. And not in a good way. Once you let your idea out of the hermetically sealed vault of your brain and out into the fresh air, it will immediately start to evolve. The minute you get it down on a piece of paper, it will change. And once you let it out of the house – once someone else gets to experience it – everything is changed. You are changed. The project is changed. The audience is changed. That’s the alchemy of art. .Sam Bennett
About This Quote
If you are not writing your work down, it has no effect on anyone. If your work is not shared with others, it has no effect on anyone. If your work is not put into the world for all to see, it has no effect on anyone. If you are not putting your effort into the world of art, then it does not really matter. It cannot affect anything or anyone except you and not in a good way.
