Left Page:
Are there
acceptable
places from
which
inspiration
blows?
Or does
it just
blow?

Right Page:
Where there is hatred,
let us sow love.
Where there is injury,
Where there is despair,
hope,
Where there is doubt,
faith
Where there is darkness,
light
Where there is sadness,
joy.
Some art critics
scorn Klimt
due to the spiritual
inspiration of her
work. Nonsense.
