If the art thief is stealing originality from the rich to give to the poor, Deborah should be able to empathize.

Hi Deborah

If you *could* communicate with him, what would you tell this guy? What do *you* think the consequences are? What do you think the consequences should be? Does it make a difference if the art is stolen from the internet versus a store? What about a museum? If he stole some of your art, how would you feel? What do you think should be done in that case?

Yours,

Socrates

But I steal what I like.

I can lead you to love
I can take you or leave you
I can ask for the truth
But I'll never believe you
And I'll take what you give me, as long as it's free
Yeah, I steal like a thief
But I'm always a woman to Bruce.......

I had art stolen from me at a venue once. I was really pissed about it for about 2 months. Then I got over it and thought it was cool.

Kerosene: What a cool way to deal with negatives !

Oh, no. I think it was a painting.
