“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(10:39.) Now: Ruburt early saw your prejudice against galleries. And determined that he would try to circumvent it—hence your sketches in Dialogues; for despite your avid and determined dislike of the marketplace and its imperfections, of which he is more aware than you think, he thought that he would still see to it that your talent was placed to some extent at least before the world —rail as you would against the stupidities and poor craftsmanship. He was determined, protesting or not, that your work would see the light of day, that despite any compromises its merits would appear.

He had far greater faith than you that your artistic integrity would affect Prentice, so that your drawings would emerge mainly as you intended them. You have dragged your feet, my dear friend, fearing that the inadequacies of the physical condition would mar the integrity of your work. You did not understand that your integrity would affect the physical conditions, and the people involved.

To him Dialogues served at least to initiate those purposes. The poetry is an excellent merging of his metaphysical interests and his art. The book also however shines with your own contribution, and if you would hide your talent, he consistently demanded that you show it. In many ways then the book represents for him a triumph, and serves as a memento of your joint purposes.
