“Real art, like the wife of an affectionate husband, needs no ornaments. But counterfeit art, like a prostitute, must always be decked out. The cause of production of real art is the artist's inner need to express a feeling that has accumulated...The cause of counterfeit art, as of prostitution, is gain. The consequence of true art is the introduction of a new feeling into the intercourse of life... The consequences of counterfeit art are the perversion of man, pleasure which never satisfies, and the weakening of man's spiritual strength.” MenNeedsArtRealFeelingsSpiritualArtistCausesPleasureWifeHusbandArt IsConsequenceGainsProductionsOriginalityIntroductionProstitutionIntercourseOrnamentsAffectionatePerversionCounterfeitWeakeningSpiritual StrengthNew Feelings Author:Leo Tolstoy

“Mahatma Gandhi I would say had perhaps a greater spiritual quality whereas Winston Churchill had besides the courage, ability and above everything else, the ability to put into words what his people felt so that he could always lead them.
