Art is never finished, only abandoned.

Summary

This quote suggests that art is a constant process and that artists may ultimately choose to stop working on a piece, not because it is truly finished, but because they decide to let it go and move on. It implies that there is always room for improvement or further exploration, and artists may struggle with the decision to put a halt to their creative endeavors. It serves as a reminder that art is subjective and ever-evolving, urging artists to embrace the imperfections and uncertainties that come with the creative journey.

It is said that Napoleon lost the battle of Waterloo because he forgot his infantryhe staked too much upon the more spectacular but less substantial calvary. The present administration in Washington provides a close parallel. It has either forgotten or it does not want to remember the infantry of our economic army. These unhappy times call for the building of plans that rest upon the forgotten, the unorganized but the indispensable units of economic power, for plans like those of 1917 that build from the bottom up and not from the top down, that put their faith once more in the forgotten man at the bottom of the economic pyramid.

On page 605, Blumenthal says that 'I made friends with Hitchens's friends the novelists Martin Amis and Salman Rushdie.' True in its way. I particularly remember the occasion when he called me up and invited me to dinner with Dick Morris, but only on condition that I brought Rushdie (who was staying in my house) along with me. No Rushdie: no invitation. So I never did get to meet Dick Morris.
