James Balduin

The purpose of art is to lay bare the questions that have been concealed by the answers.
— James Baldwin

Dr. Daisaku Ikeda

The life and essence of art—whether it be painting, music, or dance—lies in expressing through a wellspring of emotion the universal realm of the human spirit. It is a melding of the individual and the universal. That is why great art reaches out beyond ethnic and national barriers to move people all over the world.

Dr. Johan Galtung

By peace we mean the capacity to transform conflicts with empathy, without violence and creativity- a never ending process.

Arundhati Roy

“Our strategy should be not only to confront empire, but to lay siege to it. To deprive it of oxygen. To shame it. To mock it. With our art, our music, our literature, our stubbornness, our joy, our brilliance, our sheer relentlessness – and our ability to tell our own stories. Stories that are different from the ones we’re being brainwashed to believe.

The corporate revolution will collapse if we refuse to buy what they are selling – their ideas, their version of history, their wars, their weapons, their notion of inevitability.

Remember this: We be many and they be few. They need us more than we need them.

Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.

― Arundhati Roy, War Talk

Sigmund Freud

Everywhere I go I find a poet has been there before me.
—Sigmund Freud

“As musicians and artists, it’s important we have an environment — and I guess when I say environment, I really mean the industry that really nurtures these gifts. Oftentimes, the machine can overlook the need to take care of the people who produce the sounds that have a lot to do with the health and well-being of society.” – Lauryn Hill
