"The good writing of any age has always been the product of someone's neurosis, and we'd have a mighty dull literature if all the writers that came along were a bunch of happy chuckleheads."
-William Styron
We do know this of course from history. What then is our neurosis; a war in the mind between our emotion and logic, unescapable for the creative mind. For the mind to be at rest is to gaze at the pin-up three by three inches taped in the bunker and painted on the bombs. For the soldiers, the knights in shining armor ,the object of desire is the damsel in distress, to find her is a quest for battle which brings him across strange lands and unexplained mysteries. It is the architect's quest too, we seek battles to engage in the mind, our quest is for knowledge, and our damsel in distress... Well, you just have to find her for yourself.
