“It is the specialist's task to talk about means, about centimeters. An artist's task is to talk about the goal, about kilometers, thousands of kilometers. The organizing role of art consists of infecting the reader, of arousing him with pathos or irony -- the cathode and anode in literature. But irony that is measured in centimeters is pathetic, and centimeter-sized pathos is ridiculous. No one can be carried away by it. To stir the reader, the artist must speak not of means but of ends, of the great goal toward which mankind is moving.” InspirationalMeanArtEndsMovingArtistLiteratureSpeakGoalRolesMankindReaderTasksRidiculousIronyPatheticSpecialistsCarried AwayPathos Author:Yevgeny Zamyatin

The State requires a taxpaying machine in which there is no hitch, an exchequer in which there is never a deficit, and a public, monotonous, obedient, colorless, spiritless, moving humbly like a flock of sheep along a straight high road between two walls.” TwoStatesGovernmentMovingQualityLibertyMankindWallDemandHighestMachinesAimFilledAtmosphereDryTreatmentDelicateSheepExpansionDeficitAttainmentReductionObedientFlocksMonotonousClockworkHigh RoadDry UpColorless Author:Ouida

“To higher or lower ends, they [the majority of mankind] move too often with something of a sad countenance, with hurried and ignoble gait, becoming, unconsciously, something like thorns, in their anxiety to bear grapes; it being possible for people, in the pursuit of even great ends, to become themselves thin and impoverished in spirit and temper, thus diminishing the sum of perfection in the world, at its very sources.” PeopleWorldEndsMovingSpiritMankindSourceBearsBecomingHigherAnxietyAmbitionPerfectionMajorityPursuitTemperGrapesThornsCountenanceIgnobleGait Book:The Works of Walter Pater Source: The Works of Walter Pater
