'I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free. Stars are always dancing. Sometimes they dance twinkling away with the rhythm of your joyful heart and sometimes they dance without movement to embrace your heartache as if frozen sculptures of open-armed sadness. The sculpture is already complete within the marble block, before I start my work. It is already there, I just have to chisel away the superfluous material. The greatest artist does not have any concept which a single piece of marble does not itself contain Within its excess, though only A hand that obeys the intellect can discover it.’ Michelangelo Buonarroti
