On Friday night, at Knox College, in Galesburg, Illinois, I came across an excerpt from "The Everyday Work of Art", by Eric Booth. "Until the seventeenth century, the word "courage" meant more than bravery; it covered the full range of the heart's passions, including rage and inspiration, awe and humility, hate and love. The work of art uses and develops that broadest kind of courage...... "Courage is overcoming disengagement in all its guises. It is the commitment and the skill to participate." posted by shailja at 2:35 PM 0 Comments: Post a Comment Links to this post: <$BlogBacklinkTitle$> <$BlogBacklinkSnippet$> posted by <$BlogBacklinkAuthor$> @ <$BlogBacklinkDateTime$> Create a Link << Home Previous Posts permission to suck my new favourite definition of a poet Dec 21st, 2012 murderous rage Go Chavez when you're still working at 3am this week I began to write Nobel Laureate shot by Israelis sick Jetrosexual
