“ Should we not be concerned as to whether this fear of error is not just the error itself? ”
If we are in a general way permitted to regard human activity in the realm of the beautiful as a liberation of the soul, as a release from constraint and restriction, in short to consider that art does actually alleviate the most overpowering and tragic catastrophes by means of the creations it offers to our contemplation and enjoyment, it is the art of music which conducts us to the final summit of that ascent to freedom.
~ Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Propounding peace and love without practical or institutional engagement is delusion, not virtue.
The one who merely flees is not yet free. In fleeing he is still conditioned by that from which he flees.
Too fair to worship, too divine to love.
