"To send light into the darkness of men’s hearts – such is the duty of the artist." ― Robert Schumann Topic(s): Art More From Robert Schumann "If we were all determined to play the first violin we should never have an ensemble. therefore, respect every musician in his proper place." More In Art "A metaphysical tour de force of untethered meaning and involuting interlocking contrapuntal rhythms, ‘The Clock’ is more than a movie or even a work of art. It is so strange and other-ish that it becomes a stream-of-consciousness algorithm unto itself – something almost inhuman."― Jerry Saltz "Thou must be emptied of that wherewith thou art full, that thou mayest be filled with that whereof thou art empty."― Saint Augustine "Perhaps it’s good for one to suffer. Can an artist do anything if he’s happy? Would he ever want to do anything? What is art, after all, but a protest against the horrible inclemency of life?"― Aldous Huxley
