You must dare to disassociate yourself from those who would delay your journey... Leave, depart, if not physically, then mentally. Go your own way, quietly, undramatically, and venture toward trueness at last. ~Vernon Howard
I love Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, in fact, I'd like to find it and read it again. There are some beautiful and powerful passages. The one on your sidebar is one I'd forgotten, but the sense is similar to the others I'd saved. It's worth re-reading this quote, for sure!
I will tell you what I will do and what I will not do. I will not serve that in which I no longer believe, whether it call itself my home, my fatherland, or my church: and I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can and as wholly as I can, using for my defence the only arms I allow myself to use - silence, exile, and cunning.

I'm doing some catching up. Is that the Mount St. Helens landscape?
