Life Is Art

The moral life of man forms part of the subject-matter of the artist, but the morality of art consists in the perfect use of an imperfect medium.

No artist desires to prove anything.
Even things that are true can be proved.

No artist has ethical sympathies.
An ethical sympathy in an artist is an unpardonable mannerism of style.

No artist is ever morbid.
The artist can express everything.
Thought and language are to the artist instruments of an art.

Vice and virtue are to the artist materials for an art.
From the point of view of form, the type of all the arts is the art of the musician.
From the point of view of feeling, the musician's craft is the type.

All art is at once surface and symbol.
Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril.
Those who read the symbol do so at their peril.
It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors.
Diversity of opinion about a work of art shows that the work is new, complex, and vital.
Love is one of the greatest affectionate that art could express
By say, artist stripped off their cloths, being naked, with their souls.
Wanting to share or to immortalize that love they have
But so their peril, their vulnerability, their naked souls
With just the name of love.
