I painted for 20 years without liking them very much, you know. I burnt them at the end of every year. For 20 years I burnt the whole bunch because I didn't want them to get in the market.

But I always regretted it because you hate to think of a painting in somebody's house that you don't like well enough, you know. (Agnes Martin)
I am grateful for the [financial] assistance I received last year [1955] through the Helene Wurlitzer Foundation. It gave me the materials I needed and a certain amount of security and enabled me to make a very good try for my New York show. This did not succeed but Miss Betty Parsons whose gallery I will eventually show in assured me that in one more year she thought I could make it, which is not discouraging... I painted all together one hundred canvasses of which I had a good opinion and sold seven.
Agnes Martin

Research desk: In 1992, a Mexican edition of the "Protocols"''' was listed in a few Catholic schools as required reading! And that same year in Turkey, a newspaper carried a 40-page insert that linked Freemasonry to Jewish world power headed by 70 elders! Again in 1992 a Russian edition of the "Protocols of Zion” appeared. Well, that's the whole story, sir. Graphic novelist: Thank you! But this is only one element of the whole story!
Will Eisner
Protocols: supplementary budget, and all this ends up in accordance with the sum of the total addition, the annual departure from the normal reaches up as much as 50 percent in a year, and so the annual budget is trebled in ten years.... Every kind of loan proves infirmity in the State and a want of understanding of the rights of the State. Loans hang like a sword of Damocles over the heads of rulers, who, instead of taking from their subects by a temporary tax, come begging with outstretched palm of our bankers...the Goy states go on in persisting in putting more on to themselves to that they must inevitably perish, drained by voluntary blood-letting. Graves: Their interest calculations are the same to support the financial dangers of loans!

Golovinski: Mr. Rachkovsky, a Zionist congress met last year. I can simply fabricate a manifesto! Rachkovsky: Not good enough...and that will take too much time! I have a solution! Here is an old book by someone named Maurice Joly. It appeared here in France in 1864... and four years ago our journalist Decyon tried to use it to attack Russia's financial system. Golovinski: The "Dialogue in hell between Machiavelli and Montesquie”! Jolly's book attacks Napoleon III's government! It can be read as a plan for tyranny! Rachkovsky: Exactly. All you have to do is 'change this into a testament that emanates from the Jewish leaders...eh, Golovinski? Golovinski: Ah, yes. A Jewish conspiracy! Yes, yes.
Will Eisner
Protocols Number 20, paras. 26-32 The budgets of income and expenditure will be carried out side by side that they may not be obscured by distance one to another. ...The first irregularity, as we shall point out, consists in their beginning with drawing up a single budget which year after year grows owing to the following cause: this budget is dragged out to half the year, ten they demand a Graves: Clearly, the "Protocols” author adapts the text of "Dialogues” so carelessly in his hasty attempt to Prove a Jewish conspiracy!

When I was a child of about thirteen, for nearly a year every night as soon as I had gone to bed it seemed to me that I went out of my body and rose straight up above the house, then above the city, very high above. Then I used to see myself clad in a magnificent golden robe, much longer than myself; and as I rose higher, the robe would stretch, spreading out in a circle around me to form a kind of immense roof over the city. Then I would see men, women, children, old men, the sick, the unfortunate coming out from every side; they would gather under the outspread robe, begging for help, telling of their miseries, their suffering, their hardships. In reply, the robe, supple and alive, would extend towards each one of them individually, and as soon as they had touched it, they were comforted or healed, and went back into their bodies happier and stronger than they had come out of them.

As far as my work concerned, I am busy with a few small paintings, one is ordered and the other I have to 'adventure'. More and more I feel that I am short of so many studies, if I had the money, I didn't make any painting next year, I would only study [sketches]; but well, you have to make the best of a bad job, it will be hard enough to enable myself a living.
