I’m pretty sure you know about the recent tragedy in Oslo, Norway. You might want to turn away from anything that reminds it. However, I think there’s something positive in this story as well.
When reporters asked the mayor of Oslo whether the city is in need for more security, he said:
I don’t think security can solve problems. We need to teach greater respect.
This very moment when the masses asked for more blood, he took a pause. He responded in a quite unexpected way. He talked about respect. He selected education instead of violence.
I don’t know anything about Fabian Stang and most probably I’ll never hear his name again. But his response worths two moments of our time.
Art is fundamentally a survival device of the species. Otherwise it wouldn’t be so persistent. It wouldn’t be in every culture. We wouldn’t know about it…

Also:
- How does art help you survive?
- It helps us survive by making us attentive. In a simplistic way, when you go past a forest and you look at it and you say, “that looks just like Cézanne.” And you realize Cézanne has made you see the reality of the forest in a way that you never could have seen before. He’s made you attentive. Every work of art that you care about makes us attentive. And if it doesn’t do that it ain’t art.
- Use blanks (bad copy) and you’re not gonna bag yourself any prospects.
- Aim poorly (bad design) and you’re not gonna hit anything with your high-caliber words.
- Load up, sight down the line, breathe out nice and easy, and squeeze the trigger…and you’re all set.
