In Art There Is Only

Critics Should Help People See For Themselves; They Should Never Try To Define Things, Or Impose Their Own Explanations, Though I Admit That If... A Critic's Explanations Serve To Increase The General Obscurity, That's All To The Good.

Truth Exists; Only Lies Are Invented.

To Define A Thing Is To Substitute The Definition For The Thing Itself.

To Explain Away The Mystery Of A Great Painting - If Such A Feat Were Possible - Would Do Irreparable Harm... If There Is No Mystery, Then There Is No Poetry, The Quality I Value Above All Else In Art.

One Has To Arrive At A Specific Temperature, At Which The Objects Become Malleable.
