“The man who boldly transgresses, amassing a great heap unjustly--by force, in time, he will strike his sail, when trouble seizes him as the yardarm is splintered.

“We might adapt for the artist the joke about there being nothing more dangerous than instruments of war in the hands of generals. In the same way, there is nothing more dangerous than justice in the hands of judges, and a paint brush in the hands of a painter! Just think of the danger to society! But today we haven't the heart to expel the painters and poets because we no longer admit to ourselves that there is any danger in keeping them in our midst.” ThinkingWayHeartArtWarHandsMightTodayArtistJusticeDangerousHavensDangerPoetJudgingJokesInstrumentsPaintPainterMidstBrushesPaint Brushes Author:Pablo Picasso
