I believe that my whole creative life stemmed from this magic hour under the stars on that hilltop.
If there were nothing else of Abraham Lincoln for history to stamp him with, it is enough to send him with his wreath to the memory of all future time, that he endured that hour, that day, bitterer than gall - indeed a crucifixion day - that it did not conquer him - that he unflinchingly stemmed it, and resolved to lift himself and the Union out of it.
Just as the development of earth art and installation art stemmed from the idea of taking art out of the galleries, the basis of my involvement with public art is a continuation of wall drawings.
My love of fashion stemmed from my mother's passion for it.
Then I realized that most of the world's problems stemmed from macho dickheadism, and if I cold defeat that I could save the world.
