“Art is limitation; the essence of every picture is the frame. If you draw a giraffe, you must draw him with a long neck. If in your bold creative way you hold yourself free to draw a giraffe with a short neck, you will really find that you are not free to draw a giraffe.”
“A fairly clear line separated advertisement from art. The First Effect I should say the first effect of the triumph of the capitalist (if we allow him to triumph) will be that that line of demarcation will entirely disappear.”
“A strange fanaticism fills our time: the fanatical hatred of morality, especially of Christian morality.”
“If there is one thing worse that the modern weakening of major morals, it is the modern strengthening of minor morals.”
“Journalism largely consists in saying "Lord Jones is dead" to people who never knew Lord Jones was alive.”
“Art is the signature of man.”
