Could you explain the part of the desk being in the corner, not sure I completely grok what that means.

- latexr 7y ago> Could you explain the part of the desk being in the corner That idea is continued in the rest of the quote: > Life isn’t a support-system for art. It’s the other way around. The desk isn’t at the center of the room because art (writing, in his case) shouldn’t be the center (the most important thing) of your life. You shouldn’t sacrifice your life to produce art, but create art to improve your life. Zen Pencils has a short comic with the surrounding context for the quote: https://zenpencils.com/comic/king/ https://zenpencils.com/comic/king/
- sooheon 7y agoIf life isn't a support system for art, the implication is art should support life. My take is that art (or your work) should be supplementary to life itself, and should not take over it entirely.
