IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BUY - BUY WHAT YOU LIKE.

YOUR HDTV WILL NOT APPRECIATE - YOUR ART COLLECTION WILL.

 

LIKE FRESH CUT FLOWERS - ORIGINAL ARTWORK IS GOOD FOR THE SOUL.

 

IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD A PAINTING

 - TELL A FRIEND THEY OWE YOU A GIFT.

 

IF THE PAINTING DOES NOT MATCH THE SOFA

 - TOSS THE SOFA.

 

ARTWORK YOU GIVE YOUR PARENTS 

 - COMES BACK TO YOU IN THE WILL.

 

WHAT HAPPENS ON THE INTERNET STAYS ON THE INTERNET

 - THERE IN LIES THE PROBLEM.

 

ASSUME THAT WHAT YOU TAKE OUT ON YOUR WAITER

 - YOUR WAITER WILL TAKE OUT ON YOUR MEATLOAF.

 

RENT ONLY LASTS FOR A MONTH

 -  A PAINTING IS FOREVER.

 

WHY SHOULD MUSEUMS HAVE ALL THE GOOD ART…
