"... to seek a barer life, closer to reality, without all the things that clutter and fill our lives. I left friends whose preoccupations of me held me to their image of me. ... The truest thing in my life is my work. I want my life to be true. Almost gave up my life for my work, seeking a life of the spirit."
–– Lenore Tawney (1907-2007), American artist. 1967 Journal entry
