Help with English paper?
My teacher gave us these three quotes:
“I close my eyes in order to see.” –Paul Gauguin
“Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.” –Edgar Degas
“The bluebird carries the sky on his back.” –Thoreau
I have to pick one and develop it. She said that it could a story, a poem, or basically anything else as long as it's at least two pages long.
I'm having a hard time coming up with an idea. Any insight on what I could do?

Yeah, prose is not suited for a lot of human experience. So you must develop your writing skills. See this as a game. Hmmm... So, we know that these things are all false, on first reading, right? Yes or no. You cannot really see anything with your eyes closed, right? You do have to see art, don't you? The bluebird is in the sky, and cannot carry it on its back, isn't that so?
So, your task is to determine the truth in these statements, profound pronouncements, let us say. What is that truth? Start there. Write in paper what you think the truth in each one is. Post more if you get stuck on that!
