The bad gains respect through imitation, the good loses it especially in art.

The erosion of funding for seed and grassroots spaces is part of a wider liberal tendency to strip away the socially democratic infrastructure that actually makes art possible.

Art lifts man from his personal life into the universal life.

The world is a work of art that gives birth to itself.

Art is the highest task and the proper metaphysical activity of this life.
