The arts community is generally dominated by liberals because if you are concerned mainly with painting or sculpture, you don't have time to study how the world works. And if you have no understanding of economics, strategy, history and politics, then naturally you would be a liberal.

  • -- Mark Helprin 普林

艺术界通常由自由主义者主导,因为如果你主要关注绘画或雕塑,你就没有时间去研究世界是如何运作的。如果你不懂经济、战略、历史和政治,那么你自然会成为一个自由主义者。
