Artists are the antennae of the race, but the bullet-headed many will never learn to trust the great artists.
But the one thing you should. not do is to suppose that when something is wrong with the arts, it is wrong with the arts ONLY.

The modern artist must live by craft and violence. His gods are violent gods. Those artists, so called, whose work does not show this strife, are uninteresting.
The serious artist must be as open as nature. Nature does not give all of herself in a paragraph. She is rugged and not set apart into discreet categories.
The artist is the antenna of the race.
Here is our poetry, for we have pulled down the stars to our will.
The artist is always beginning.
It is the business of the artist to make humanity aware of itself.
Genius... is the capacity to see ten things where the ordinary man sees one.
