Trouble Imitating

    The trouble with Eichmann was precisely that so many were like him, and that the many were neither perverted nor sadistic, that they were, and still are, terribly and terrifyingly normal.

    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

    Who would dare assign to art the sterile function of imitating nature?
