One of the strongest motives that lead men to art and science, is escape from everyday life with its painful crudity and hopeless dreariness, such men make this cosmos and its construction in the pivot of their emotional life, in ordered to find the peace and the security, which they cannot find in the narrow whirlpool of personal experience.
不算过错,有多少人为此蒙蔽良心;无可奈何,有多少体面以此为借口。
The terror of art is that you don't know where it's taking you.
