More on Art
“To blossom forth, a work of art must ignore or rather forget all the rules.”
“Most of our modern portrait painters are doomed to absolute oblivion. They never paint what they see. They paint what the public sees, and the public never sees anything.”
“The form of a work of art, which gives speech to their thoughts and is, therefore, their mode of talking, is always somewhat uncertain, like all kinds of speech.”
More on Learning
“Prejudice is a learned trait. You're not born prejudiced; you're taught it.”
“There is nothing wrong with making mistakes and not having all the answers, so long as we are willing to admit this and strive for personal betterment. Those who think they know it all have no way of finding out that they don't.”
“Those who fail to learn from the brutal stompings visited on them in the past are doomed to be brutally stomped in the future.”
