Art Quote by Lionel Suggs
““It's to hard to speak unfeigned to a world that bathes in the art of deception. It's hard to seek the truth in a world that has been enveloped with illusions. It's hard to touch sincerity, when opinions exist. However, it's easy to have faith, when the highest respected power is naiveté.””
