“As for 'story' I never yet did enjoy a novel or play in which someone didn't tell me afterward that there was something wrong with the story, so that's going to be no drawback as far as I'm concerned. "Good Lord, why am I so bored" "I know; it must be the plot developing harmoniously." So I often reply to myself, and there rises before me my special nightmare that of the writer as craftsman, natty and deft.” KnowsPlayStoriesEnjoyLordNovelSpecialConcernedDevelopingBoredNightmarePlotCraftsmanDrawbacksSo Bored Author:E.

“There is a conceptual depth as well as a purely visual depth. The first is discovered by science; the second is revealed in art. The first aids us in understanding the reasons of things; the second in seeing their forms. In science we try to trace phenomena back to their first causes, and to general laws and principles. In art we are absorbed in their immediate appearance, and we enjoy this appearance to the fullest extent in all its richness and variety. Here we are not concerned with the uniformity of laws but with the multiformity and diversity of intuitions.” TryingFirstsWellsArtReasonFormLawScienceCausesEnjoyUnderstandingPrinciplesSeeingDiversityConcernedDepthAppearanceIntuitionAidsVarietyVisualsRichnessUniformity Author:Ernst Cassirer
