An artist is the creator of the beautiful. The goal of art is to uncover art, and to hide the artist...A critic is one who can express the impression he has received from beautiful works in a new way or with a new building. The highest and lowest form of criticism is some kind of autobiography who finds a rusty meaning in beautiful works av is corrupt and shrinking in loveliness. And that is a flow. Who finds beautiful meaning beautiful works-is cultured. There's hope for him though. The chosen ones are those for whom beautiful deeds are the only expression of beauty...The moral life of a man is merely a part of artistic construction; and the moral of art is to make a perfect use of an imperfect means. There no artist who wants to prove a point. Although only truths can be proven.There are no artist with ethical sympathies. Ethical sympathy for artist i an inexcusable stile mannerism. There is no artist of decadent. An artist is able to express everything... "Picture of Dorian Grey", preface by Oscar Wilde.
