No artist desires to prove anything. Even things that are can be proved. No artist has ethical sympathies. An ethical sympathy in an artist is an unpardonable mannerism of style. No artist is ever morbid. The artist can express everything.

Thought and language are to the artist instruments of an art.
Vice and virtue are the artist’s materials for an art. From the point of view of form, the type of all the arts is the art of the musician. From the point of view of feelings, the actor’s craft is the type.
All art is at once surface and symbol. Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril.
Those who read the symbol do so at their peril. It is the spectators, and not life, that art really mirrors.

Todo impulso que empenhamos em sufocar incuba no nosso espírito e nos envenena. Peque o corpo uma vez e estará livre do pecado, porque a ação tem um dom purificador. Nada restará então, salvo a lembrança de um prazer, ou a volúpia de um arrependimento. A única maneira de se livrar de uma tentação é ceder a ela. Se resistimos, nossa alma adoecerá de desejo do que proibimos a nós mesmos, do que as suas leis monstruosas tornaram monstruoso e ilegítimo. Tem-se dito que os grandes acontecimentos do mundo ocorrem no cérebro. Também é no cérebro, e só nele, que ocorrem os grandes pecados do mundo.
