All great art, and today all great artlessness, must appear extreme to the mass of men, as we know them today. It springs from the anguish of great souls. From the souls of men not formed, but deformed in factories whose inspiration is pelf.

  • -- Lionel Trilling 特里林

正如我们今天所知道的那样,所有伟大的艺术,以及今天所有伟大的天真,在大多数人看来,都是极端的。它来自伟大灵魂的痛苦。他们的灵魂不是从工厂里成形的,而是从工厂里变形的。
