    “No one is ahead of his time, it is only that the particular variety of creating his time is the one that his contemporaries who are also creating their own time refuse to accept....

In the history of the refused in the arts and literature the rapidity of the change is always startling.”

    In our arts we find our bliss,
    I have mine and he has his.”
