An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way.
Sometimes you climb out of bed in the morning and you think, I’m not going to make it, but you laugh inside–remembering all the times you’ve felt that way.
Charles Bukowski (1920-1994) is a German-American poet, novelist, and short story writer. His prolific writing produced over 45 books of poetry and prose, and much of his writing spoke to the despairing urban conditions of the downtrodden.
This quote is so accurate: “An intellectual says a simple thing in a hard way. An artist says a hard thing in a simple way.” As an admin in a Facebook apologetics group I see how that can be true with intellectuals in the group. Yet so true about the artist!
