Good question. Isn't it supposed to be 40 days, but they let you have Sundays off or something?

If I'm not a practicing Catholic, why would I give up anything? confuse

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

I'm agnostic, so not a damn thing!

The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.
