Bullock said: "I think everything is mysterious. . . . To me everything in art is a symbol, it's never the thing. . . . I believe that symbols are more important than the people. They have more power to infl uence the world than the people who create the symbols. Why is it that all the great philosophers, scientists, painters, and so forth still have this great infl uence? It's because of the symbols they've left us."
