In The Evolution Of Mankind

In Order To Create It Is Necessary To Destroy; And The Agent Of Destruction In Society Is The Poet. I Believe That The Poet Is Necessarily An Anarchist, And That He Must Oppose All Organized Conceptions Of The State, Not Only Those Which We Inherit From The Past, But Equally Those Which Are Imposed On People In The Name Of The Future.

The Characteristic Political Attitude Of Today Is Not One Of Positive Belief, But Of Despair.

Works Of Art Must Persist As Objects Of Contemplation.

It Will Be A Gay World. There Will Be Lights Everywhere Except In The Minds Of Men, And The Fall Of The Last Civilization Will Not Be Heard Above The Din.

In General, Modern Art... Has Been Inspired By A Natural Desire To Chart The Uncharted.
