Bob Dylan, Art and, Well, Not Personal Finance
I just finished reading & reviewing a new book that collects many of Bob Dylan's "essential" interviews over the years, and an answer he gives in a 1965 interview really struck me. It has nothing to do with personal finance, but it had sort of a Zen quality that I appreciated. See if you like it:

"Great paintings shouldn't be in museums. Have you ever been in a museum? Museums are cemeteries. Paintings should be on the walls of restaurants, in dime stores, in gas stations, in men's rooms. Great paintings should be where people hang out. You can't see great paintings. You pay half a million and hang one in your house and one guest sees it. That's not art. That's a shame, a crime... Just think how many people would really feel great if they could see a Picasso in their daily diner."

Enjoy your weekend.
