...flowers that fill Chagall's home in Vence you report: "The moment they begin to fade, the artist prods his wife to throw them out." The contrasting attitude of Pierre Bonnard is interesting.

Not until they were ready to throw out did he show interest in them; then, when that first shine was off and petals were falling, he began to paint them...

In a BBC-TV interview, Britain's Cecil King candidly explained why his London Daily Mirror is not likely to be displaced as Great Britain's largest daily (circ. 5,000,000).
