Art

“Si vous voulez plaire, il faut connaître l’âme populaire.”

“L'Art du collage est un sport dangereux, l'artiste collagisant risque à chaque tournant de se coller la figure par terre.”

“常欲得思深语近，韵律调新，属对无差，而风情宛然，而病未能也。”

“In both angelism and devilry, it is a question of intensity – and this is what our literature lacks.”

“If I read a book and it makes my whole body so cold no fire can warm me I know that is poetry.”

“The root of poetry is in its emotions, its branches in its wording, its flowers in its rhyme and voice, and lastly its final culmination in the fruits of its meaning.”

“When old words die out on the tongue, new melodies break forth from the heart; and where the old tracks are lost, new country is revealed with its wonders.”

“In this playhouse of infinite forms I have had my play, and here have I caught sight of him that is formless.”
