I recently read Rick Bass' Brown Dog of the Yaak. I recommend it to anyone living a life of activism and art. He writes about both topics, their effect on him as individual life goals and as he manages to balance both.
"Art is required to save wild places."
"Activism is love casting left while despair wants to cast right."
"This world, and life itself, is nothing but an amazing receptacle for spirit. It is not a receptacle for money, nor are our bodies, nor our minds."
"Art or activism? They shadow one another; they destroy one another: but they share the same inescapable, irreducible bedrock fuel - passion. Love, or fury. Love, and fury."
