“Art is not and never has been subordinate to moral values. Moral values are social values; aesthetic values are human values. Morality seeks to restrain the feelings; art seeks to define them by externalizing them, by giving them significant form. Morality has only one aim - the ideal good; art has quite another aim - the objective truth... art never changes.” GivingHumansHas BeensArtFeelingsFormValuesSocialMoralMoralityArt IsIdealsAimSignificantObjectivesAestheticNever ChangeSubordinatesGood ArtHuman ValuesMoral ValuesObjective TruthSocial Values Author:Herbert Read
“If humans did not manufacture some of their own to appear like better people, people would not aspire to be someone else. They would stop dreaming. And if people didn't dream, they would be awake to discover the wonderful misery of being. There are no singular great people. There is only a small percentage of people manufactured to look significant, for the purpose of creating the feeling of mass insignificance.” PeopleIfsHumansLooksFeelingsDreamWould BePurposeWonderfulCreatingMassMiserySignificantAwakeAspirePercentagesGreat PeopleBeing ThereInsignificanceStop Dreaming Author:Craig Stone
