Strand, Georgia O'Keeffe, 1917
... I knew that when I wrote that I was hurting the artist in you and I like it that you kick back and spit at me. It isn't that I have a particular liking for being treated that way but I like the artist standing up for himself - believing in his own word no matter what anyone may say about it. Believing in what one does ones self is really more important that having other people pat you on the back.
- Georgia O'Keeffe, in a letter to Henry Cady Wells
