About this Quote

In this quote, Paul Simon recommends that truths, which are usually seen as unbiased and uncomplicated, can be transformed into something more creative and subjective through the skilled usage of art. He suggests that it takes a particular level of artistry and imagination to turn facts into something that is visually pleasing and thought-provoking. This might be achieved through numerous types of art such as music, literature, or visual arts. Simon's words highlight the power of art to change and raise our understanding of the world around us, even when handling relatively ordinary truths. It speaks with the endless possibilities and potential of art to transcend the regular and develop something truly remarkable.
