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…
