Artists are cleaners, don’t let yourself be taken in by them. True modern works of art are made not by artists but quite simply by men.” “On pragmatistic principles, if the hypothesis of God works satisfactorily in the widest sense of the word, it is true.” “We all agree now—by “we” I mean intelligent people under sixty—that a work of art is like a rose. A rose is not beautiful because it is like something else. Neither is a work of art. Roses and works of art are beautiful in themselves. Unluckily, the matter does not end there: a rose is the visible result of an infinitude of complicated goings on in the bosom of the earth and in the air above, and similarly a work of art is the product of strange activities in the human mind.” |
