As we all do our part to somehow keep the global economy engine running especially this time of the year, here is one piece of literature that will certainly make for a thoughtful present this gift giving season.

Publishing house Phaidon recently put out a pocket-sized hardbook cover  of over 300 pages featuring insightful quotes taken from interviews, documentaries, memoirs, letters, and diaries on some of your favourite creatives all over.

 

It is carefully curated with sections on topics like money, failure, beauty, fame, sex, the creative process, discipline , and originality just to name a few. It’s a perfect resource for any emerging practice. It is opens up some honest and forthright advice, life lessons, and inspiration directly for those who’ve already experienced and established themselves through creating.

 

Art Is the Highest Form of Hope & Other Quotes by Artists is the name of the book you and can be found at your local book store or wherever else you look for books.
