There's a limit to one's resourcefulness, but how do you know the limit? You have to push out and and not do anything you've ever done before. It comes to that.
Habit is what destroys art. I've always been struck by those Cheyenne who did everything backwards when they were bored. There's a longing, a craving to know more than we get to know, sort of a Faustian notion that you want a lot of interesting things to occur before you die; and it strikes you that rather than wait around for them to occur, you're going to have to arrange most of them.
