“There is a constant in the average American imagination and taste, for which the past must be preserved and celebrated in full-scale authentic copy; a philosophy of immortality as duplication. It dominates the relation with the self, with the past, not infrequently with the present, always with History and, even, with the European tradition.”
—Umberto Eco (b. 1932)
“This age-old truth I to thee impart
Act according to the dictates of your art
Because if you dont no one else is going to
And that person isnt likely to be you.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
