C"The life of the artist is, in relation to his work, stern and lonely. He has labored hard, often amid deprivation, to perfect his skill. He has turned aside from quick success in order to strip his vision of everything secondary or cheapening. His working life is marked by intense application and intense discipline."
— John F. Kennedy (1917-1963); Thirty-fifth President of the United States
Public Papers of the President: 1962, p. 904, The Arts in America
