• Depression moods lead, almost invariably, to accidents. But, when they occur, our mood changes again, since the accident shows we can draw the world in our wake, and that we still retain some degree of power even when our spirits are low. A series of accidents creates a positively light-hearted state, out of consideration for this strange power.

  Jean Baudrillard

  Depression, Power, Light

  Jean Baudrillard (1990). “Cool Memories”, p.138, Verso

• Of course my moods change, but the average is serenity. I have a firm faith in art, a firm confidence in its being a powerful stream which carries a man to a harbor, though he himself must do his bit too; at all events, I think it such a great blessing when a man has found his work that I cannot count myself among the unfortunate. I mean, I may be in certain relatively great difficulties, and there may be gloomy days in my life, but I shouldn't like to be counted among the unfortunate, nor would it be correct if I were.

  Vincent Van Gogh

  Art, Powerful, Mean

  Vincent van Gogh (1971). “Van Gogh's "diary"; the artist's life in his own words and art”
