 “Art is not only able to echo and mirror contemporary feeling, but it possesses also an awakening prophetic power which can have far-reaching and profound effects. The artist sees and points out. He drags the heavy weight of resisting humanity forward and upward.” |
 “Successful art is the profound and precise expression of life from the level of the simplest form of awareness. Expression from the level of the simplest form of awareness is ‘artistic’ expression because it has universality imbibed within its individual content.” |
