Johan Fichte, father of our education system, said, “It is impossible to erase the disobedience gene in people who have learned to think for them self.” “A great artist lets himself go. He is natural. He swims easily in the stream of his own temperament. He listens to himself, he respects himself. He has a deeper fund of strength to draw from than that arising from rational and logical knowledge. “The function of the artist is to disturb. His duty is to arouse the sleeper to shake the complacent killers of the world. He reminds the world of its dark ancestry, shows the world its present and points the way to its new birth. He is at once the product and the preceptor of his time….In a world terrified of change, he preaches revolution – the principle of life. He is an agitator, a disturber of the peace, quick, impatient, positive, restless and disquieting. He is the creative spirit of life working in the soul of men.”—Dr. Norman Bethune. The only sensible way to regard life is that it is a privilege we are willing to pay for.
