"Emerson understood the artist's need to withdraw from the public in order to gather creative steam: 'Happy are the artists who look only into their work to know if it will succeed, never into the times or the public opinion; and who create from the love of imparting certain thoughts and not the necessity of sale- who create always for the unknown friend.' "
