Like art, science is born of itself, not of nature. There is no neutral naturalism. The artist, no less than the writer, needs a vocabulary before he can embark on a 'copy' of reality. (Ernst Gombrich)

Art has a double face, of expression and illusion, just like science has a double face: the reality of error and the phantom of truth. View quote
René Daumal
The artist makes art not to save mankind but to save himself. Every benevolent comment by an artist is a fog to cover his tracks, the bloody trail of his assault against reality and others. View quote
Camille Paglia
The artist must create a spark before he can make a fire and before art is born, the artist must be ready to be consumed by the fire of his own creation. View quote
Auguste Rodin
Nature, body, mind go to death, not we. We neither go nor come. The man Vivekananda is in nature, is born and dies; but the Self we see as Vivekananda is never born and never dies. It is the eternal and unchangeable Reality. View quote
Swami Vivekananda
The arts objectify subjective reality, and subjectify outward experience of nature. Art education is the education of feeling, and a society that neglects it gives itself up to formless emotion. Bad art is corruption of feeling. View quote
