"I did the bulletin board without much thinking, and it has turned out to be such a big success. I get an enormous kick out of looking at them and thinking about places and paintings I’ve seen with friends, things I’ve loved for 50 years, and new things I’ve discovered. By now I have hundreds of cards from around the world, everything from Michelangelo’s David to Dürer’s Self-Portrait. It’s important to feel that side of yourself that brings, I don’t know what to say, psychological relief? A spiritual well-being? These are the things that, to some extent, give meaning to everything else.”

- Tano Santos, the Robert Heilbrunn Professor of Asset Management and Finance
