The special vocation of the artist
"Not all are called to be artists... yet all men and women are entrusted with the task of crafting their own life... They are to make of it a work of art, a masterpiece."
- Pope John Paul II
- Pope John Paul II
From the greatest of them all...
"Maybe it is worth investigating the unknown, if only because the very feeling of not knowing is a painful one."
- Krzysztof Kieslowski
Polish filmmaker
To his runner-up...
"Film as dream, film as music. No art passes our conscience in the way film does, and goes directly to our feelings, deep down into the dark rooms of our souls."
- Ingmar Bergman
Swedish filmmaker
